Do you have any information on Camp Hill, Maer Hills Staffordshire.
I have worked out that Camp Hill has "line of site"for beacon communication to other hill forts deep into wales shropshire, yorkshire and malvern.
I would value any information you have and share my findings

Just for the record, thanks to the Staffordshire libraries staff who organised the events, and helped them be successful. Especially Sam, & Scott for their friendliness, and pro-active communication. A very pleasant, and professional experience. Thankyou. Tim.
