Abstract:		 Pollen data, collected from five radiocarbon dated profiles within a 1.5km radius of the hillfort, indicate that ironworking activities apparently had only localised impact on the environment. Results suggest that woodland recovered to its pre-ironworking level except in the immediate vicinity of the hillfort. Integration of the archaeological and palaeoecological data allowed understanding of the resource-based aspects of this prehistoric industrial site and the results have wider implications for the field of experimental industrial archaeology.
