Round at Berry Farm is a defended settlement located in Cornwall, England. The site represents a characteristic form of Iron Age fortification known as a Cornish round, comprising a circular or sub-circular enclosure defined by a substantial bank and ditch. The earthwork dates to the Iron Age period, though the precise chronology of occupation remains uncertain without extensive excavation. Such rounds served as defended homesteads or small settlements, reflecting the settlement patterns and defensive strategies of Iron Age communities in south-western Britain.
