Westbury Camp

Westbury Camp is a univallate Iron Age hill fort in the Mendip Hills, Somerset, situated in the parish of Rodney Stoke approximately 1.6 km (1 mi) north-east of Draycott and 2.4 km (1.5 mi) north-west of Westbury-sub-Mendip [1]. The fort is largely situated on a hill slope, with the north-east defences largely destroyed by small quarries over the years [1]. The narrow top of the hill bank suggests it may have been surmounted by a dry stone wall [1].
