Wasteberry Camp is an Iron Age hillfort located approximately 800 metres north-west of Lyneham House in Devon. The site is defined by a single rampart with an external ditch, characteristic of Iron Age defensive earthworks in the region. In subsequent periods of use, the site functioned as a medieval deer park and later as a post-medieval warren, demonstrating continuity of land management practices across centuries. The monument survives as an upstanding earthwork and remains a significant example of Iron Age settlement hierarchy in Devon.
