(NM 7523 1206) Fort (NR)
OS 1:10,000 map, (1976)
This is a fort and is generally as described. The outwork to the east and south could represent the remains of an earlier fort since (a) its close proximity to the outer face of the fort makes its defence value negligible (b) it is heavily robbed, unlike the wall of the fort and (c) it disappears in the north, the weakest point of the hill, where an outwork contemporary with the fort should be of considerable strength. Surveyed at 1:2500.
Visited by OS (DWR), 17 September 1971.
