Ramparts of  Spettisbury Rings
Ramparts of Spettisbury Rings
A hill just South of Spetisbury was used as a hill fort by a British tribe, protected by great ramparts around the living area. The Romans took over in 45AD, the battle left many skeletons discovered when the railway nearby was constructed around 1860.
