Ancient hillfort, grassy mound on RoW. Great coastal and inland views. Wildflowers. Wildlife Trust land | Denise | 20/07/2023 |
From the E Top, following the gentle undulation of the ridge line to the ancient hillfort embankment of grassed over limestone rubble. Great views include Steep Holm island. | RichardM | 20/07/2023 |
There was a funeral going on at the church so no parking. Parked at 44741 58681, down a path and along before a steep climb up to the hill fort. Very careful returning down the steep bit as no ambulances today. | clivevilla | 21/12/2022 |
Part of a longer walk through Burrington Combe and round through to Beacon Batch | lboutside | 02/06/2022 |
Parked at the Church on Rowberrow Lane then bridleway to the NT access ( car parking here to ) at Dolebury Bottom. Steps give easier access to the hill fort than a direct slog up the grass. HP located near the foundations of a cottage, once used by the warrener. | DanMaisieBex | 19/03/2022 |
