Cadson Bury is a slight univallate hillfort located in Cornwall, England, dating to the Iron Age. The monument is defined by a single defensive rampart enclosing an area of relatively modest dimensions, typical of smaller hillforts constructed during the later prehistoric period. The site's modest earthworks suggest it served local defensive or administrative functions within the Iron Age settlement hierarchy. Like many Cornish hillforts, Cadson Bury represents the prehistoric fortified settlement tradition of south-western Britain.
