Stonea Camp is a multivallate hillfort located at Latches Fen in Cambridgeshire, England. The site is defined by multiple defensive earthwork banks and ditches arranged in a roughly circular plan, characteristic of Iron Age fortified settlements in eastern England. Excavation and fieldwork have established occupation during the Iron Age period, though the precise chronology and duration of use remain subjects of archaeological study. The monument represents an important example of hillforts in the Fenland region, where such defensive structures are comparatively less common than in other parts of Britain.
