It is defended by a curved wall built across the ridge and along the southern edge, which although precipitous is not quite inaccessible. There is no wall on the north side, where the cliff rises vertically. There are two separate walls across the entrance. The inner wall shows small portions of both faces in position. The inner wall is still about 3m wide and 2m tall. The outer wall is reduced to the foundation course. The entrance goes straight through both walls.
The fort is over 40m long and 23m wide. |
