Woodbury Hill is a hill near the village of Great Witley, about 5 miles (8 km) south-west of Stourport-on-Severn in Worcestershire, England. It is the site of an Iron Age hillfort.
The hill overlooks the River Teme to the south-west. The fort (a scheduled monument) has a single rampart with an external ditch. It has dimensions of about 600 metres (2,000 ft) west to east and 350 metres (1,150 ft) north to south, enclosing an area of about 11 hectares (27 acres). There is an entrance with inturned ramparts at the south-west, and other entrances. A track leads north to south through the site.[1][2]
