[20] No one photograph, for example, can bring out all the hollows and hut-positions on Hambledon Hill, because of the convex surface of the ground, cf. Wessex from the Air, pl. II.

[21] The number of instances in which crop-marks have revealed buried features within hillforts is not negligible. Examples include Romano-British buildings at Tidbury Ring (Hampshire), a native ‘settlement’ at Casterley (Wiltshire), a Middle Bronze Age enclosure on Ram’s Hill (Berkshire), pits, of uncertain age, at Eggardon (Dorset), enclosures at Brandon camp (Herefordshire).
