Camp Hill, Bailiehill NY 255 905 NY29SE 8
Situated on the summit of Camp Hill, there is a fort which measures 78m by 40m within its rampart, and contains at least nine circular house-scoops. An area of about 1.3ha around the fort is enclosed by an earthwork comprising double banks and medial ditch, which have been levelled by cultivation on the E and SE; the outer bank is the larger (up to 4.5m in thickness and 0.9m in height) and the whole work, which is probably an addition to the fort, is comparable to that at Castle O'er (see NY 29 SW 10).
