Farmland at Roke hill between Alderholt and Cranborne

A named place photographed at this map point in Dorset.

Roke Hill rises to approximately 140 metres and is part of the Cranborne Chase chalk plateau, an area rich in Neolithic and Bronze Age archaeological remains. The hill's name may derive from Old English, with "Roc" suggesting a promontory or rocky feature, and it lies within a landscape historically significant for its Iron Age hill forts and ancient trackways.
