Stokeleigh Camp, Iron Age promontory fort in Long Ashton, England.
Stokeleigh Camp spans 7.5 acres across a level terrain, featuring three main ramparts that rise progressively toward a central elevated area protected by natural slopes.
Archaeological findings indicate occupation during the late pre-Roman Iron Age under the Dobunni tribe, with evidence of Belgae presence in the first century.
The fort's strategic position and architectural elements demonstrate the advanced military engineering capabilities of Iron Age communities in British territory.
Visitors can access the site through marked pathways in Leigh Woods, with informational panels explaining the historical features of the fortification system.
The fort's defensive structure incorporates the natural protection of Avon Gorge to the north and east, with an innermost rampart reaching 30 feet in height.
