Old Pound Copse earthwork is a univallate hillfort situated in Hampshire, England. The monument comprises a single defensive bank and ditch enclosing an area of archaeological interest, characteristic of Iron Age fortification practices in southern Britain. Its precise dating and functional purpose remain subjects of archaeological study, though such earthwork enclosures typically served defensive, administrative, or seasonal occupation roles during the later prehistoric period. The site's preservation within woodland has allowed the earthwork to survive substantially intact to the present day.
