Norbury Camp is a prehistoric hilltop enclosure located in Gloucestershire. The site comprises a roughly circular or oval earthwork defined by a substantial bank and ditch, characteristic of Iron Age defensive settlements in the region. Dating to the Iron Age period, the monument represents one of several fortified hillforts constructed across the Gloucestershire landscape during the later prehistoric era. The surviving earthworks, though reduced by subsequent land use and agricultural activity, remain visible as a discrete topographical feature and contribute to understanding settlement patterns and territorial organisation in the West Midlands during the first millennium before the Common Era.
