The Knolls camp is an Iron Age hillfort located in Gloucestershire. The site occupies a naturally defensive position and exhibits the characteristic earthwork defences typical of Iron Age settlement hierarchy in the region. The monument comprises substantial banks and ditches that would have enclosed a significant settlement area, reflecting the communal effort and organisational capacity of its Iron Age inhabitants. Such hillforts served multiple functions as centres of habitation, defence, and possibly ritual significance during the later prehistoric period.
