Land owner permission requirements unknown.

There’s not much of the hill fort left to actually see, it’s mainly rocks spread over the site, but you are treated to wide open space, great landscapes, and, depending on conditions, some cloud inversions along the nearby valley.

Be aware of livestock, particularly during the lambing season, and ground-nesting birds…

Free parking at W3W: ///spices.jacuzzi.wriggled

Take the public footpath from the car park up to the signpost which indicates a permissive path to the hill fort on the right.

TOAL from the public footpath.

While you’re there, check out the nearby rock which features cups and rings - the rock is a protected monument of national importance - it's on the other side of the public footpath…

_The originator declared that this location was **not** inside a Flight Restriction Zone at the time of being flown on 03/06/2023. It remains the responsibility of any pilot to check for any changes before flying at the same location._
