Caesar's Camp, Bracknell Forest
Caesar's Camp is an Iron Age hill fort and around 2600 years old. It is located just in Crowthorne civil parish (formerly Easthampstead), to the south of Bracknell in the English county of Berkshire.
==History==
Caesar's Camp is thought to have been established around 500–300BC. It is the only hill fort of its type that has been identified in East Berkshire.〔http://bracknellblogger.co.uk/2014/09/01/ancient-bracknell-a-brief-history/〕 Because the area it was built on was sludgy for most of the year, surrounded by dense forest, and had a thick bed of sandstone beneath the top layers of soil, it was not suitable for farming – the community at Caesar's Camp was therefore dependent on the produce of neighbouring villages, in areas such as Binfield and Arborfield. Caesar's Camp was therefore most likely used as an assembly point and a marketplace. Its huge outer walls and mile-long dump rampart also suggest that it was used as a safe haven in case of attack.
Caesar's Camp appears to have fallen under the rule of Cunobelin, king of the Catuvellauni tribe in the first century AD.〔http://bracknellblogger.co.uk/2014/09/01/ancient-bracknell-a-brief-history/〕 Soon after, the Romans invaded England; after this time, there is no evidence that Caesar's Camp continued to exist as an inhabited community.
A road from its south entrance was later built, connecting it to the Devil's Highway. After the first century, Caesar's Camp was likely used as a resting beacon or storage facility.
