Hambledon hill fort

Many of you will already know that Dorset has numerous hill forts. This week's "Saturday Timewatch" features Hambledon hill fort, rising to 190metres / c625ft above the village of Child Okeford. Although known to have been previously and extensively used during Neolithic times, the hill today represents a superb example of an Iron Age hill fort dating from around 2,600 BC onwards.
