The remains of a complex multi-phase Iron Age settlement has been recorded on Gibb's Hill. A palimpsest of intercutting palisade trenches (a narrow trench which held a fence of vertical timbers) and the remains of timber round-houses represent at least six periods of construction and occupation. The relationships between the features allows a relative chronological relationship to be established, although the site has not been dated by scientific means.
