Hillfort in Denbighshire (Sir Ddinbych)
"Oval, irregular earthwork enclosure surviving on uncultivated heath. The enclosure measures approx. 88m x 110m, and encloses 0.75 hectare. The rampart is irregular in character and features many gaps in the perimeter; some short lengths of bank are partly discontinuous with their adjacent sections. The enclosure is most likely to be a later prehistoric defended enclosure, but an earlier date cannot be ruled out on the grounds of its unusual character."
