I have come accross an excellent resource for hillfort listings at English Heritage's Pastscape web resource [1], unfortunately it still lists Avon as a county. For the moment I have added these into Somerset, but it would not surprise me if some should be in Gloucestershire or Bristol. I will try and check these in more detail as and when I am able, in the meantime I apologize for any incorrectly located hillforts! Pahazzard ( talk) 18:15, 13 February 2011 (UTC)
Ok, so I'm making a big push to get through hundreds of hillforts listings on Pastscape and adding any missing ones onto this article. The trouble is not all of them have names - some are just monument numbers. No names on maps either! I am effectively giving them names when I add them to the list here, either from geographic location, i.e. the name of the hill they are on, or the nearest town/village. However, this could still be confusing to whoever wants to research and create a new article, and refer back to Pastscape. To try and avoid confusion or mis-direction I am now going to add the monument number against such hillforts on the list in hidden text, such as: Highbury Hill,_Clutton I hope that this makes sense.

The Atlas of Hillforts is a new, publicly accessible site created to map and describe all hillforts in the British Isles. As well as creating its own site, the Atlas has shared some data about each site with Wikidata. On the project page we are listing tasks related to the data import, where help is welcomed. One possibility is of overhauling list-of-hillforts articles by adapting drafts created by ListeriaBot. See the prototype being worked on at User:MartinPoulter/Hillforts. With a bit of work, we could make this list much more detailed and complete. MartinPoulter ( talk) 13:43, 12 July 2017 (UTC)
This figure for the total number of hillforts, taken from the Guardian article of 2016 , is a very exact number when both the article and the website make it clear that many of those in the list are only possible/probable rather than scheduled ancient monuments counted by English heritage.-- FDent ( talk) 18:56, 16 July 2021 (UTC)
[the hillfort atlas authors] decided that 4,147 sites warranted the term hill fort(going on to break that down by country, which is where the 1,124 in England figure comes from). Although there might well be doubt about some of them, if experts think that there's probably that many, that should be good enough for us. Not all archaeological sites in England are scheduled monuments; not by a long shot. – Joe ( talk) 18:35, 17 July 2021 (UTC)
I have added a map for the list of Hampshire hillforts. I will add more if editors feel that maps like this contribute to the article. Que ( talk) 20:37, 15 December 2021 (UTC)
