Woodmancote is a hillfort located in Gloucestershire that represents Iron Age settlement and defensive architecture. The site lies within a landscape of significant archaeological importance, demonstrating the continuity of settlement patterns from the Iron Age through the Romano-British period. Earthworks associated with the hillfort, along with Romano-British structures documented 500 metres to the north-west, illustrate the transition from Iron Age hillfort occupation to Romano-British villa development in this region. Such patterns of settlement shift are characteristic of Gloucestershire during the late Iron Age and Roman occupation, reflecting changes in settlement hierarchy and agricultural organisation following the Roman conquest of Britain.
