Blagden Copse Iron Age enclosure is a prehistoric fortified settlement located in Hampshire, England. The monument comprises an Iron Age hillfort or enclosed settlement situated in the north east corner of the copse, defended by substantial earthwork banks and ditches typical of Iron Age defensive architecture. The enclosure dates to the Iron Age period, representing an important example of contemporary settlement practice in southern England. The surviving earthworks, though subject to woodland growth and erosion, retain sufficient definition to demonstrate the scale and sophistication of Iron Age engineering in this region.
