St George's Hill is a large multivallate hillfort located in Surrey, England, dating to the Iron Age. The fort is defined by multiple concentric defensive ramparts and ditches that encircle the hilltop, characteristic of developed Iron Age fortification design. Its substantial earthworks reflect the significant resources invested in its construction and maintenance, suggesting it served as an important territorial centre during the later prehistoric period. The site's commanding position and elaborate defences indicate its role in the settlement hierarchy of Iron Age Surrey.
