Brian_Eyes visited on 21st Aug 2016 - their rating: Amb: 4 Access: 4 There is an information board about the medieval castle on the footpath approach from Crete Road West, but I don't think it mentions any Iron Age archaeology. Very nice spot overlooking Folkestone and English Channel. Popular with picnicking families, people out for a stroll etc.
A possible Iron Age Hillfort site although the present earthworks are from a medieval castle .
