Forest Hill Farm

Hillfort

ginger tt Apr 22, 2010

Nice location on the edge of Savenake Forest overlooking Malborough. I visited the site today and the earthworks along the edge of the hill and among the woods at the top of the hill looked like they could be Iron Age. The position on the edge of the hill would suggest that it was part of a hill fort or enclosure of some kind.
