Willersey Hill Camp is a hillfort situated in Gloucestershire, England, dating to the Iron Age period. The monument comprises an area of elevated ground enclosed by defensive earthworks characteristic of the Iron Age fortification tradition. Located on high ground, the site would have commanded views of the surrounding landscape, typical of hillforts established as centres of settlement, commerce, and territorial control during the later prehistoric period. The earthwork defences remain visible in the modern landscape, preserving evidence of Iron Age settlement patterns and territorial organisation in the Cotswold region.
