Bury Hill, Iron Age hillfort in Test Valley, England
The defensive structure extends across 22 acres of land, featuring a double rampart system with deep ditches surrounding the central area.
The site transformed from a simple earthwork into a substantial fortification during the Iron Age and remained active through the Roman period.
The hillfort belongs to a network of ancient defensive structures along the River Test that includes Danebury, Norsebury, and Woolbury sites.
Visitors can access the site through a footpath that circles the inner rampart, with entry points located at the northeast and southwest sections.
The elevated position of the fort, reaching 100 meters above the Ordnance Datum, provides control over the surrounding valleys and brooks.
