Uffington Castle

Uffington Castle is an early Iron Age hill fort in Oxfordshire, England. It covers about 32,000 square metres and is surrounded by two earth banks separated by a ditch with an entrance in the eastern end.

In 1974 it was transferred from Berkshire. Dragon Hill is a natural chalk hill with an artificial flat-top, to which clings the legend that it was on its summit that Saint George slew the dragon.
