Hambledon Hill

Hambledon Hill NNR is an area of dramatic chalk grassland that rises steeply between the Stour and Iwerne valleys. The hilltop is encircled by an Iron Age earthwork and there are extensive and complex Neolithic features, making it a site of major archaeological importance. The grassland provides the main wildlife interest at the site but there are also areas of mixed scrub and a small yew wood.
