Wapley Hill large multivallate hillfort and pillow mounds 150m north of Warren House is an Iron Age defensive settlement located in Herefordshire. The site comprises a substantial hillfort defended by multiple concentric banks and ditches, a characteristic form of fortification typical of the later Iron Age period in the Welsh borderlands. In addition to the hillfort's earthworks, the site includes pillow mounds, the low, elongated cultivation ridges that reflect medieval and later agricultural use of the landscape. The monument's survival as upstanding earthworks makes it a significant example of Iron Age fortification strategy and subsequent land management in the region.
