Kemps Castle, Turin Hill NO c. 51 53 NO55SW 1

On the summit of Turin Hill there are the remains of a multi-period fort (NO 514 535), and three duns NO 5120 5344, NO 5133 5348 and NO 5147 5355 respectively. A stretch of orthostatic walling flanks the S side of the westermost dun. There is a small incised cross on one of the foundation stones of a modern boundary wall, NO 5135 5349; it is probably a parish boundary cross.
