Casterley Camp, Archaeological site in Upavon, England.
Casterley Camp features a large enclosure with earthen banks and multiple internal structures spread across the elevated terrain of Salisbury Plain.
The Iron Age settlement, constructed around 500 BCE, functioned as a defensive position and contained three separate enclosures for different community activities.
Archaeological excavations at Casterley Camp reveal evidence of religious ceremonies and livestock management practices from ancient British communities.
Access to the site requires walking along public footpaths from the north and west, while portions near the Salisbury Plain firing ranges maintain restricted entry.
A pencil sketch from 1810 by Sir Richard Colt Hoare provides the earliest detailed visual documentation of the camp's layout and features.
