It has a single rampart, with external ditch, enclosing an area of about 7 hectares (17 acres); about 500 metres (1,600 ft) long west-to-east, and 137 metres (449 ft) wide. At the south-east and south-west corners there are inturned entrances. The rampart is about 3 metres (9.8 ft) above the interior, and up to 5.5 metres (18 ft) wide.[1][2]
Excavation
The site was examined between 1948 and 1951; it was found that the ramparts seem to have internal revetments. Many pottery sherds, prehistoric and some Roman, were found. The material suggests occupation similar to that of the nearby hillforts Dinedor Camp and Sutton Walls.[2]
