Whitehawk Camp
Known locally as "the steep hill", this is a short cut to Manor Hill and the racecourse from Whitehawk Estate
Whitehawk Camp is one of Britain’s earliest stone age monuments. The hill was chosen some 5,500 years ago as the site for a series of circular ditches and banks which marked the hill as an area for feasting, burials and other activities of a ritual nature http://www.brighton-hove.gov.uk/content/leisure-and-libraries/parks-and-green-spaces/whitehawk-camp
It reaches 396 feet above sea level and measures 950 feet by 700 feet. It is made up of four concentric ditches broken up by causeways. The first written mention of the camp (as "White Hawke Hill") was in 1587. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Whitehawk_Camp
