Casterley Camp

Local nameCasterley Camp
LocationUpavon, UK

Casterley Camp is the site of an Iron Age univallate hillfort in Wiltshire, England, about 1+1⁄2 miles south-west of the village of Upavon. The site comprises a large Iron Age/Romano-British enclosure, possibly non-defensive in function, and incomplete. It was partially excavated in the 19th century.

Three apparently related enclosures are identified within the site of Casterley Camp. Stock control and religious functions have been attributed to the enclosures. There is also an Iron Age/Romano-British trackway on the west side of the site, with traces of earth banks on both sides. The site is a scheduled monument.
