Dike Hills is an Iron Age hillfort situated in Oxfordshire, England. The monument consists of a substantial rectangular or trapezoidal enclosure defined by multiple defensive ditches and banks, characteristic of later Iron Age fortified settlements of southern Britain. The site dates to the later Iron Age period, likely the final centuries before the Roman conquest of Britain. Its layout and defensive features reflect the strategic importance of controlling the local landscape during a period of increasing territorial consolidation and inter-community competition in prehistoric southern England.
