Barbury Castle er en planlagt bakkefæstning i Wiltshire, England. Det er en af flere sådanne fæstninger, der findes langs den gamle Ridgeway-rute. Stedet, som ligger inden for Wessex Downs-området af enestående naturlig skønhed, har været drevet som en landskabspark af Swindon Borough Council siden 1971. Det er beliggende på Barbury Hill, et lokalt udsigtspunkt, som under ideelle vejrforhold giver udsigt over Cotswolds og floden Severn. Det har to dybe forsvarsfoser og voldgrave. Den gamle Ridgeway løber tæt ved, og den moderne Ridgeway krydser gennem slottet. I det omgivende område findes der runde gravhøje, keltiske marksystemer og flintsyning fra 18.-19. århundrede.
