Good afternoon
Perhaps you would like to know that in the mid 1950''s there were 2 official digs on this hill fort by pupils of Sebright School Wolverley Worcestershire under the supervision of a master of our school - Mr Stephens.
We camped in the field at Banhadla, which was overlooked by the hill, there is now a house in this field, which was the closest flat area to our daily climb to the top, where we cut 2 trenches across the main access to the hill fort on the eastern side of this imposing conical hill.
You may like to know that Mr Stephens lost a leg in the Africa campaign in WW2, but this did not stop him climbing straight up the hill every morning and climbing down again in the afternoon, he was not going to be stopped just because he had only one leg.
A true Gent and Hero
