Also known as: Stoke Hill Camp

Stoke Hill is a large hill rising to the north of Exeter in Devon, England [1]. It is significant as the site of both an Iron Age hill fort and a later Roman signal station [1]. The hill fort is situated slightly below and northeast of the Roman signal station, putting it in a better position to have sight of a number of other hill forts simultaneously [1]. It is at an elevation of approximately 145 metres above sea level [1]. The signal station is at the highest point of the hill, 159 metres above sea level [1].
