Abstract The abstract describing the content of the publication or report |
NT 131664. Interim report. Six lines of ramparts remain on the S and E of a basalt hill which is being quarried away. In the side under immediate threat three main structural phases are evident: a univallate fort with horizontal timber lacing, some vitrification and an inturned entrance; the Phase 2, a new rampart of rubble core with stone facing overlay the old in part, and the entrance was remodelled. Two additional ramparts may belong to this phase. The main outer rampart was added in Phase 3, together with shorter lengths, to enclose a further section of the hill where many hut circles are visible. Two 20ft diameter huts and one of 38ft were examined. 14C dates of 12th century BC (remains of a Bronze Age occupation?) and 4th century BC (Phase 2) were obtained. Details of the animal bones are given. | ||||||||
