Rawlsbury Camp Bulbarrow Hill Dorset

Rawlsbury Camp, a five acre Iron Age hill fort, is situated on a promontory of the hill. Little remains of the camp except the twin embankments and intermediate ditch which surrounded it. The hill gets its name from the several barrows that adorn the hill. Additionally, a medieval trackway crosses the ridge. A more recent addition is the twin radio transmitter towers used by the emergency services.

The TV presenter Jack Hargreaves who died in 1994 had his ashes spread on Bulbarrow Hill above Raven Cottage.
