Caer Kief is a Sub-rectangular earthwork enclosure of the iron age with an entrance on the eastern side. Most recently interpreted as a prehistoric round. It measures 120 metres by 125 metres enclosed by a bank 1.2 metres high and 4.2 metres wide fronted by a ditch with an average width of 4 metres.
