Madmarston Hill camp is a univallate hillfort located near Swalcliffe in Oxfordshire. The monument comprises a single defensive rampart enclosing an irregular oval area on high ground, characteristic of Iron Age hillforts constructed during the later prehistoric period. The site occupies a commanding position with extensive views across the surrounding landscape, a strategic advantage typical of such fortified settlements. Archaeological investigation and the site's structural form suggest occupation during the Iron Age, though detailed dating and the full extent of habitation remain subjects for further study.
