Reseguide

Membury Hillfort - the ramparts A view of the ramparts that surround this 34 acre iron-age hillfort near its south entrance. It stands on clay with flints on a chalk subsoil which today is mostly cultivated alongside woodland 256790. Located just half a mile south-west of Membury Services on the M4 motorway, the hillfort is one of the most ancient sites in the region (the Berkshire-Wiltshire border bisects the fort). Roman-British pottery fragments were found here by excavations between 1977-87. But significant finds have also included flint artefacts from the mesolithic era (8000-4000 BC) which followed the last ice age, and flint tools from the neolithic era (4000-2000 BC) prior to the iron age. http://www.digitaldigging.co.uk/maps/wiltshire/hillforts/hillforts_ia_wiltshire_membury_hillfort.html.

Membury Hillfort approach – ‘sheep may safely graze’ This is the slope up which the enemy would have had to climb in order to attack this iron-age hillfort from the south. The tops of the trees on the ramparts which surround the fort can be seen beyond the nearest tall clump. The fort itself covers an area of 34 acres and this large feature on which it stands consists of clay with flints on a chalk subsoil.

Bra hotell
Mycket bra stora rum, bra service och traditionell engelsk frukost. Hotellet ligger lite avsides, det är inte promenadavstånd till någon butik.
