Ringwork on Cam's Hill is a medieval fortified enclosure situated north east of Lawn Farm in Wiltshire. The monument comprises a roughly circular or oval earthwork defined by a bank and ditch, characteristic of ringwork fortifications typical of the 11th to 13th centuries. Such structures served as defended residences for minor nobility and gentry during the Norman period and later medieval centuries, functioning as small-scale alternatives to more substantial castles. The earthwork remains visible as an upstanding archaeological feature, preserving evidence of medieval settlement hierarchy and defensive practices in the Wiltshire landscape.
