Ox Drove and Winklebury Hill


Details

Along much of the Ox Drove you get views to the north or south. This location takes you up a narrow road from Berwick St John where there is road-side parking.

Winklebury Hill Fort can be accessed from the Ox Drove following rights of way. It’s an Iron Age promontory fort on a scarp. Its single rampart and ditch enclose around 17 acres. It was excavated by Augustus Pitt-Rivers in 1881, who found evidence of an Iron Age settlement within the defences.
