St Ann's Hill is a univallate hillfort situated in Surrey, England, with archaeological evidence indicating Iron Age origins. The monument comprises a single defensive bank and ditch enclosing approximately two hectares on elevated terrain, representing a characteristic form of prehistoric settlement fortification in southern Britain. Later medieval activity at the site is evidenced by the remains of a chapel dating to the fourteenth century, which testifies to the continued significance of the hilltop location across different historical periods. The site thus demonstrates the longue durée of settlement and ritual use at strategically commanding positions in the Surrey landscape.
