solsbury hill

Solsbury Hill (in full, Little Solsbury Hill) is a small flat-topped hill above the village of Batheaston in Somerset, England, near the city of Bath. The top of the hill is ringed by the ramparts of an ancient hill fort. People protesting against the building of an A46 bypass road have recently cut a small maze into the hill. Solsbury hill is a possible location of the Battle of Mount Badon, which was fought between the Britons (under the legendary King Arthur) and the Saxons c.496 CE and which was mentioned by the chroniclers Gildas and Nennius.

Solsbury Hill was also the title of rock musician Peter Gabriel's first solo single http://www.solsburyhill.org. The song was featured in the 2001 movie Vanilla Sky.
