Medmenham in Buckinghamshire, England, is notable for two Iron Age hillforts along the Thames [1] [2]. Medmenham Camp is a univallate hillfort enclosing approximately 17 acres on a spur overlooking the Thames valley, defended by a rampart and ditch with an entrance on the northwest [2] [3] [4]. The relationship between these two hillforts is considered significant for studying tribal boundaries in the later Iron Age [2].
