This is probably Iron Age - it was originally on a spur of land overlooking impassable marshes. Now it's rather encroached on by housing and the outer bank and ditch are largely destroyed. You can still see the inner bank and ditch. It used to be known as Erbury ('earth fortification') and may have been used by the Danes. Rhiannon Posted by Rhiannon
