Medstead camp is a scheduled ancient monument located within the grounds of Medstead Manor House in Hampshire. The site comprises an Iron Age hillfort or defensive enclosure, evidenced by surviving earthwork features including banks and ditches that define its perimeter. The monument dates to the Iron Age period, reflecting the prehistoric settlement patterns and fortification practices of southern Britain during the centuries preceding the Roman conquest. The survival of these earthworks within a managed landscape demonstrates the site's archaeological value for understanding Iron Age territorial organisation and settlement hierarchy in Hampshire.
