WALBURY HILL

'Walbury Hill' is the highest point in the South East England region of the UK at 297 m (974 ft) above sea level.
It is situated on the Test Way on the border between the civil parishes of Inkpen and Combe in southwestern Berkshire (the latter formerly in Hampshire). It is close to the Hampshire border and 7 km southeast of Hungerford, the closest town. On its summit is the Iron Age hill fort of 'Walbury Camp'. Combe Gibbet stands on the adjoining Gallows Down.
The true summit is marked by a triangulation pillar approximately 100 yards from the main Test Way. Walbury Hill is sometimes used by the BBC as a temporary relay station during major sporting events. There is no metalled road across the hill, but the byway is open to all traffic and maintained with a hard gravel surface, probably because of its use by outside broadcast vehicles. The ridged summit is also popular with paragliding enthusiasts.
