Dragon Hill, Uffington

Dragon Hill is a small hillock immediately below the Uffington White Horse on the border of the civil parishes of Uffington and Woolstone in the English county of Oxfordshire [1]. Dragon Hill is a natural chalk hill with an artificially flattened top [1]. According to legend, Saint George slew the dragon here [1]. A bare patch of chalk upon which no grass will grow is purported to be where the dragon's blood spilled [1]. It has been suggested as some sort of Iron Age ritual site associated with the nearby hill figure [1]. It is part of the White Horse group of monuments in the care of the National Trust, and a Scheduled Monument in its own right [1].
