Woolbury
Trip No.8 Entry No.2 Date Added: 14th Apr 2011
Site Type: Hillfort
Country: England (Hampshire)
Visited: Would like to visit
Woolbury submitted by JimChampion on 29th May 2005. May 2005. Looking north from yet another Beacon Hill - this time in the Farley Mount country park. Woolbury hillfort can be seen in the middle distance, about 4 miles away. The visible southern side is gentle slope (Stockbridge Downs) but the far side is much steeper. It is also possible to see the heavily defended Danebury hillfort from this spot, but it was lost in the haze on this particular afternoon. The patchy sunlight makes interesting luminous patterns on the fields below.
