| Interpretation comments | Hilltop enclosure, IA. Contemp or later than inner revetment of middle rampart. More recent excavation failed to find features. Radiocarbon from gateway only. Large amount of quarrying has destroyed much of site. 1969-72 unpublished excavation by Davies (and Bevan Evans). Shield found 1872. Hut excavated by Livens 1961 not recorded here, insufficient info. See Gent 1983 for four posters. Plan in archive shows area of fourposters S end of W enclosure. Two inhumations under road |
