Worlebury Hill

The hill is the site of the Iron Age hillfort Worlebury Camp[2][3] which occupies the western end of the wooded east-west ridge.

The site is a Scheduled Monument (1011260) and was added to the Heritage at Risk Register in 2017,[4] its condition noted as 'declining'.

[6] Before the flatlands were adequately drained, the main route to Bristol ran eastwards along the hillside.

[8] The woodland provides a habitat for mammals including deer, badgers, red foxes and bats.

[9] In 2020, North Somerset Council initiated a consultation on plans to remove "thousands of trees" to protect the remains of the Iron Age fort.
