PROJECT SET TO SAVE IRON AGE HILLFORT
09:52 - 01 February 2005
Important work to protect an Iron Age hillfort which is home to rare plants is due to get under way next week. Details of the restoration scheme at Kimsbury Camp, a scheduled ancient monument on Painswick Beacon, near Gloucester, will be discussed at a public meeting tonight.
Representatives from the county council's archaeology service and the Painswick Beacon Conservation Group will host the meeting at Painswick Town Hall.
The work includes repairing the ramparts of the hillfort, scrub clearance, seed planting and the siting of information boards.
Nick Russell, the county council's countryside adviser, said: "We hope that by undertaking these works now, before the damage gets too bad, we will ensure visitors are able to enjoy the archaeology, ecology and views from this wonderful hillfort."
The work, scheduled to begin on February 8, is due to finish by the end of June.
