Oldbury Camp

Explore a rare, lowland hillfort by the River Severn

An Iron Age Hillfort That's Not On A Hill

Its ramparts still stand nearly 2m high, but there's something odd about Oldbury Camp... unlike other hillforts, it's not on a hill.

What geophysics, archaeology and metal-detecting have revealed.

Our diggers upload everything we find so that you can see it online - as soon as it comes out of the ground.

Oldbury Camp is part of a much wider project exploring the cultural and natural heritage of the low-lying land along the River Severn.
