Hillbury Hill Fort

Image: © Colin Smith Taken: 2 Jun 2007

At the north-western corner of Puttenham Common, this is one of its few areas not infested with bracken. The iron age fort is barely discernible as such, its banks are not very noticeable. The interior of the fort is covered in bracken, grass and heather. In the far distance is the west end of the Hog's Back.
