Wandlebury Hill

Wandlebury Hill is a peak in the Gog Magog Hills, a ridge of low chalk hills extending for several miles to the southeast of Cambridge [1]. Wandlebury was already inhabited in the Bronze Age and 2500 years ago there was an Iron Age hill fort here known as Wandlebury Ring [1]. This hill fort once had concentric ditches and earthen walls which were kept in place by wooden palisades [1]. Although the fort has vanished, the ditch (the Ring) dug around the edge can clearly be seen and walked along [1]. There is no evidence that it was ever used in defence [1].
