Parsonage Down Camp is an Iron Age hillfort and associated field system located in Wiltshire. The earthwork enclosure comprises a substantial univallate or bivallate defensive circuit typical of the Iron Age period, with additional archaeological evidence of contemporary or near-contemporary agricultural land division visible in the surrounding landscape. The field system demonstrates the integration of settlement and subsistence farming practice characteristic of Iron Age communities in the Wessex region. The monument provides important evidence for understanding both defensive strategy and agricultural organisation during the later prehistoric period in southern England.
