Lumps and bumps at Totternhoe Knolls
The lumps and bumps here are what seems to be a prehistoric hillfort, probably Iron Age in date, having been later used for a Norman or early medieval motte and baily castle site, taking over the already eminently defensible site perfectly suited to 'seeing and being seen' and used to control and subjugate the area.
Here a hillfort ditch is also a bailey earthwork defence, now a ditch and a very popular location for local dog walkers, walkers and runners etc.
