Dragon Hill is an ancient, natural mound, flattened by man and situated in the valley below the White Horse of Uffington. The hill is steeped in mystery and legend because of its proximity to the White Horse and the bare patch on one part of the hill. Some legends tell that St. George slew the dragon here and it was the beast’s blood which poisoned the ground so that no grass would grow on that spot. Another legend claims that the slain dragon is buried under the hill.
