This is the main car park for British Camp (Herefordshire Beacon), at Wynds Point where the A449 crosses the ridge. From here paths climb straight up to the hillfort ramparts.

The Malvern Hills Trust lists disabled toilets, a pub/restaurant and a refreshment kiosk at British Camp car park. It is also the designated coach park: coaches need three pay-and-display tickets.

On sunny weekends it is one of the busiest car parks on the hills. The Black Hill and Little Malvern car parks are close alternatives.
