Background

Description

The height of the hill is 262 m and it has a prominence of 120 m. The hillfort Brandon Camp lies about 3 km to the east-south-east, across the River Teme, and there are buried remains of Roman camps in between, including Buckton Roman Fort; so it is supposed that there was activity in the area into the Roman period. The main entrance to the fort, on the west side, is defined by inturned banks. The south entrance is at the junction of the east and west enclosures. In the north there are two breaks in the banks.
