Dixton Hill camp is a univallate Iron Age hillfort situated in Gloucestershire. The monument comprises a single defensive bank and ditch enclosing an irregular roughly circular or oval enclosure on elevated ground. The fort is characteristic of upland Iron Age settlement patterns in the Severn Valley region, where such fortified sites served defensive and administrative functions during the later prehistoric period. The earthwork remains, though reduced by subsequent land use, preserve evidence of this significant period of settlement and territorial organisation in the West Midlands.
