The Wrekin submitted by TimPrevett on 2nd Jan 2005. Lookin to the North East, between the outer and inner ramparts of The Wrekin.
The path enters the inturned ramparts to the central area; the trig point and toposcope sit upon a Bronze Age Cairn, which is hardly in evidence.
Another, more slight rampart is visible to the left of the picture, before the hill becomes more rounded.

Caer Caradoc (Church Stretton)
Date Added: 24th Nov 2013

If this were the place of Caratacus' last stand against the Romans, this would have indeed been something difficult to conquer, even by Roman standards. However, there is no evidence to confirm this suggestion.
