Quarley Hill
Quarley Hill is the site of an Iron Age univallate hillfort in Hampshire, southern England. The hill affords commanding views of the surrounding countryside. Oval in plan, the fort is in good condition with counter-scarp and well defined entrances at north-east and south-west. It is built on the site of an earlier palisade enclosure.〔http://www.hants.gov.uk/hampshiretreasures/vol08/page180.html Hampshire Treasures website〕 There is evidence of prehistoric activity in area including four large bronze age ditches radiating from the hillfort,〔 believed to be part of a bronze age farming settlement, and a barrow cemetery about a mile away to the north.〔http://www.themodernantiquarian.com/site/4918/quarley_hill.html The modern Antiquarian: Quarley Hill〕 There is also evidence for a Roman settlement on the north east side of the hill,〔 with Roman coins of Maximum II, and Constantine the Great, and other sherds found 1951.〔
Today, the ditches and ramparts are for the most part clear, with the centre of the site giving over to small trees and shrubs.
The site is recorded as a scheduled ancient monument no.67.〔
