Old Winchester Hill hillfort

Old Winchester Hill hillfort submitted by JimChampion on 19th Feb 2005. February 2005, looking north at the southern aspect of Old Winchester Hill. The recently-ploughed fields show the underlying chalk in this region. In his ebooklet Andy Barrett suggests that the name of this hillfort is a corruption of the Celtic "Gwynchester" meaning White City, after the appearance of the chalky ramparts when it was first constructed.
