Badbury Hill

[1] It has been suggested as a possible site of the 5th or 6th century Battle of Mons Badonicus, where King Arthur defeated the Anglo-Saxons.

[4][5] It is also frequented by mountain boarders and bikers who use the downhill course built into the side of the hill.

[6] This is maintained and improved by local mountain-board club MEBA with the permission of the Forestry Commission.

Badbury Hill is located at grid reference SU262947, to the west of Faringdon in Oxfordshire, above the village of Great Coxwell.

It overlooks the Vale of White Horse to the south and the Thames Valley to the north.
