Danesborough Camp is a slight univallate hillfort located 420 metres north of The Knoll in Buckinghamshire, England. The monument is defined by a single defensive bank and ditch system, characteristic of Iron Age hill fortification practice in southern Britain. Its modest earthwork construction suggests occupation or use during the Iron Age period, though the specific dating and duration of activity remain subjects of archaeological study. The site forms part of the wider landscape of Iron Age settlement and defensive works in the Buckinghamshire region.
