Orcop Castle is a medieval hill fort located in Cumbria, England, and is believed to have been built during the Iron Age, later occupied or modified during the Roman period. It is important as an example of ancient defensive structures in the region and is protected as a scheduled monument due to its historical and archaeological significance.
