An Iron Age hill fort enclosing 26 acres with an entrance on the east and probable occupation remains within.
From SolarMegalith: the earthworks are in perfect condition on most of the hillforts perimeter. There are 4 entrances in the ramparts, but only the NE one is surely original. Interior of the hillfort is under pasture, western and northern part of the earthworks are covered with a forest.
