Fort Southerland, also known as Redoubt E and possibly Fort Diamond, is an earthen redoubt built in 1864 to protect Camden, Arkansas.

Fort Southerland is about the size of a city block and is roughly oval- or bowl-shaped. It emplaced three cannons. When Union forces captured Camden in April 1864 during the Camden Expedition, they improved the defenses of the five redoubts, which were not sufficient for proper defense of the city.
