Quarley Hill camp is an Iron Age hillfort situated near Andover in Hampshire, England. The monument consists of a roughly oval enclosure defined by a substantial bank and ditch system that would have served both defensive and demarcating purposes. Dating to the Iron Age period, the site represents the settlement and fortification patterns typical of prehistoric communities in southern Britain during this era. The hillfort's elevated position provided strategic advantage for controlling the surrounding landscape and demonstrates the sophistication of Iron Age engineering and settlement organisation in Hampshire.
