Wicca Round

Ancient Village / Settlement / Misc. Earthwork

thesweetcheat Feb 1, 2009

From “Belerion” – Craig Weatherhill (1981 Alison Hodge):

“Wicca Round was also excavated by the West Cornwall Field Club, in 1956-7. Lying in a fairly extensive field system, it consists of a compact though mutilated group of three huts arranged in a tight triangular plan. There is more undergrowth here than on the top of the ridge, which makes Wicca Round more difficult to observe than Sperris Croft.”
