Pulpit Hill is a small multivallate hillfort located in Buckinghamshire, England, dating to the Iron Age. The site is defined by multiple defensive ramparts and ditches that encircle the hilltop, a characteristic feature of Iron Age fortified settlements in southern Britain. The hillfort's relatively modest size and defensive architecture suggest it served as a local centre of control and possibly refuge during the late prehistoric period. The monument remains a significant archaeological record of Iron Age settlement patterns and defensive strategies in the Chiltern region.
