Hinton Hill

Hillfort

Fieldnotes

Visited 4.6.11
I had read previously that the best place to see the Hillfort was from Dryham Park (NT site) but I chose to have a closer look!
In all honesty there wasn't much to see up close. All that was obvious was the curving ditch heading off into the woods. A hedgerow had grown following the contour of the ditch. The ditch was approximately 1 metre deep.
There is room to park right outside the gate leading you to the field.
Perhaps this is a Hillfort best viewed from afar after all?
