Shipton Hill is a little but dramatic hill of 558 feet in Dorset, rising up steeply with its summit less than a mile north-east of the village of Shipton Gorge. The hill's summit is ringed by the earthworks of an Iron Age hill fort, and crowned today with a trig point.
The hill is amongst the coastal hills of Dorset, three miles east of Bridport.
