Coombe Hill, East Sussex

Coombe Hill or Combe Hill is the name of a hill near Jevington in the English county of East Sussex. It is the site of a Neolithic causewayed enclosure and much later archaeological evidence. Built around 3200 BC, the enclosure consists of two concentric, segmented ditches with an internal area measuring around 6,000 m². Excavations in 1949 found animal bone, flint tools and Ebbsfleet type Peterborough ware at the site. A small engraved conical chalk block has also been recovered from the centre. The word coombe is derived from Brythonic, and means "hollow".
