Egbury Camp is a univallate Iron Age hillfort located near Basingstoke in Hampshire, England. The monument comprises a roughly circular enclosure defined by a single bank and ditch defensive system, typical of the later prehistoric period. Dating to the Iron Age, the site represents one of the strategic fortified settlements that characterised Hampshire's landscape during the first millennium before Christ. The earthwork survives as a substantial archaeological feature within the modern landscape and contributes to our understanding of Iron Age settlement patterns and defensive strategies in southern England.
