4clydesdale7 visited on 14th Jul 2011 - their rating: Cond: 3 Amb: 4 Access: 3 A pleasant walk around the fort - much to see
On the NW side much of the ditch has been infilled - in places there is also a small outer ditch - it reputedly has not been excavated - the fortifications enclose an area of roughly 11.5 acres - certainly well worth a visit and relatively easy to walk to and round
