Rowberrow Camp is an Iron Age defended settlement situated north-west of Tynings Farm in Somerset, England. The site comprises a univallate hillfort with a single line of defensive earthworks, characteristic of Iron Age fortified settlements in the south-west of England. The camp dates to the Iron Age period, when such enclosed settlements served important functions for storage, defence, and administrative control within late prehistoric communities. The earthwork remains visible today as a prominent archaeological monument that contributes to understanding settlement patterns and defensive strategies in Iron Age Somerset.
