Burrough Hill is an Iron Age hillfort in Burrough on the Hill 7 miles (11 km) south of Melton Mowbray in the English county of Leicestershire. Situated on a promontory about 200 metres (660 ft) above sea level the site commands views over the surrounding countryside for miles around. There has been human activity in the area since at least the Mesolithic and the hillfort was founded in the early Iron Age.
