Sidbury Hill, or Sidbury Camp, is the site of an Iron Age bivallate hillfort on the eastern edge of Salisbury Plain in Wiltshire [1]. The site is sub-triangular in shape, approximately 17 acres in area, and is constructed on the site of a Neolithic settlement [1]. The hill offers excellent defensive slopes on all sides, which have been supplemented by the double ditch and rampart earthworks [1]. The settlement and hillfort were partially excavated in the 19th century and the 1950s; there were finds of pottery and other artefacts [1]. A number of flint flakes and tools were recovered [1]. The site is a scheduled national monument [1].
