Abstract:		 SO 294219. Excavations in the 1-8ha partly bivallate fort concentrated first on the three entrances, to determine a sequence, and are now directed towards the rather fragmentary house remains in the interior. Period I (?5th century BC) saw at least eight phases of fence round a ?stock annexe to a promontory fort; subsequent developments included full defence of the annexe, inturning of E gate (threshold slot, no guardrooms); further modifications to gate with stamped wares of Malvern type, and final reduction to 0-5ha. Other pottery compares with Lydney and Llanmelin, and there are La Tène straight-rod and involuted brooches. The site is discussed in its Marches context; it appears linked with Croft Ambrey etc until ?end 3rd century, when it may have come just within Silurian territory.
