    Silbury Hill is the largest artificial mound in Europe. It is similar in height and volume to the Egyptian pyramids. Whilst the hill is a bit of a mystery to historians, experts believe it was completed in around 2400 BC. There are no burials within the hill and its purpose and significance remain unknown. The site is managed by English Heritage.
