From TheWhiteRider: A univallate Iron Age hillfort commanding high ground South of Halwell.
The fort lies on private proprty but is visible from a path with public access running NE alongside it.
Some distance along this path are the remains of a Medieval ringwork and further still is a Bronze Age barrow cemetary.
