Iron Age Hill Fort
Iron Age Hill Fort
Dense summer vegetation fills the ditch which separates the two tree-lined mounds of this Iron Age Hill Fort. This feature protected the fort on its eastern boundary, with the steep hill of Kings Wood to the north and the deep valley with trackway to the south-west forming the other defenses which bound this triangular enclosure.
