At 249 metres (817 ft), Wheatham Hill is one of the highest hills in the county of Hampshire, England.
Much of the hill is covered in mixed forest and there is a trig point at 244 metres. There is a minor track over the summit.[2] It is located in a Special Area of Conservation known as the East Hampshire Hangers.[3]
On the southeastern spur of the hill in the woods is a tumulus, evidence of prehistoric settlement in the area.[2]
