Dudsbury Camp (also known as Dudsbury Rings) is an Iron Age hillfort situated on the north bank of the River Stour near West Parley in Dorset, England[1]. It forms part of a linear chain of earthworks in the Stour valley, beginning at Hambledon Hill and continuing through Hod Hill, Spetisbury Rings, Buzbury Rings, and Badbury Rings, with the Iron Age port at Hengistbury Head marking the final monument in this sequence[1]. The defences enclose a semicircular area and utilize natural topography for strategic advantage[1].
