Perborough Castle

Hillfort

Miscellaneous

From David Nash Ford - Berkshire History Website (www.berkshirehistory.com)

'There was a sizable community settled in Compton parish as far back as the bronze Age when banks and ditches were constructed around a settlement which, in the Iron Age, was turned into the hillfort of Perborough Castle. The inhabitants farmed the surrounding area quite intensively and a large number of field systems have been examined on nearby Cow Down.'
