Full description
Juicetrump Hill is an unusual, wedge-shaped mound formed on the spine of a ridge. It is most likely a natural limestone outcrop, though some past speculation has suggested that this may be the site of a south-south-west to north-north-east aligned Neolithic long barrow. This interpretation is thought unlikely, however, and remains unconfirmed. {1}
