From SolarMegalith: Only western part of the hillfort on St Ann's Hill is in reasonable condition - the rampart, traces of the ditch and outer bank are still distinguishable. Various footpaths lead through this part of the hill, while on the Northern slope there's a holy well called The Nun's Well. Beside the Iron Age artefacts the excavations on top of the hill unearthed traces of Mesolithic occupation.
