About Uffington White Horse

The Uffington White Horse is a prehistoric hill figure, 110 metres long, made from deep trenches filled with crushed white chalk. It lies on the upper slopes of Whitehorse Hill in the parish of Uffington, Oxfordshire. Its clean lines can be seen from far across the surrounding countryside.

The hill is part of the scarp of the Berkshire Downs and looks north over the Vale of White Horse. It is about 16 kilometres east of Swindon, 8 kilometres south of Faringdon and a similar distance west of Wantage.
