Hamble Common Camp

Iron Age promontory hillfort on a 22-hectare peninsula between Southampton Water and the River Hamble in Hampshire, England. The fort exploited the natural defensive advantages of its coastal promontory position south of Hamble-le-Rice village. The site was later reused for St Andrew's Castle, one of the Device Forts built by Henry VIII in the 16th century as part of coastal defences against French invasion. The hillfort and its associated earthworks are designated as a scheduled monument, preserving evidence of both prehistoric and Tudor-era military use of this strategic location.
