Holmbury Hill : ウィキペディア英語版 | Holmbury Hill Holmbury Hill is a wooded area of 261 metres above sea level and the site of an Iron Age hillfort. It sits along the undulating Greensand Ridge its summit being from the elevated and tightly clustered small village of Holmbury St. Mary in Surrey, England which was traditionally part of Shere, away. ==Archaeology and history== Excavation of the site in 1929 by S.E. Winbolt indicated that it dated to the 1st Century AD and may have been constructed by Belgic tribes of Celts who were settling this part of Britain in the period prior to the Roman invasion of Britain. The hillfort was defended by double ramparts to the west and north with escarpments on the eastern and southern slopes. The outer ditches were originally about three metres deep and six metres wide. The inner ditches were considerably larger, some four metres deep and nine metres wide.
