Despite the name, this hillfort dates from the Iron Age. Huge, ‘stepped’ ramparts on the north side (most visible and impressive, as you might expect, at sunset). On the south side, there is (rather inexplicably) a hill taller than the one the fort stands on. Excellent views, particularly at dusk, in one direction all the way to Arthur’s Seat, across the Firth of Forth, to the Forth Bridge and beyond to Fife, and in the other to Berwick Law and Bass Rock.
To get there, if you’re walking, take the North Berwick train or bus from Edinburgh, and get off at the small village of Drem. Cross the railway road bridge and climb over the fence, then follow the tree-lined road up the hill. The Chesters is on the right and very visible.
By car: the hillfort is well-signposted (it’s looked after by Historic Scotland) and has a small, unobtrusive car park below the W side.
