Oram's Arbour is quite near my workplace. It is now a pleasant park, but pretty unrecognisable as an ancient iron age fort. I think a large part of the original must be built over.

Some of the slopes in the park may be left over earthworks - or it could be later landscaping. Hard to tell. I couldn't find much information about it from the local councils, apart from that there was a trading centre nearby at around 150BC. The locals generally don't know that it exists.
