This early Iron Age hillfort has double and in places triple ramparts. The southern part has fallen into the sea, due to coastal erosion, exposing several sections of the interior of the hillfort. Fragments of Iron Age pottery, sling-stones, and bones were found in 1939 in a pit near the western entrance. Other landslides near the cliff edge, have revealed the floor of the hillfort. In the early 19th century a skeleton, said to be of abnormal length was discovered just beneath the surface of the inner rampart.
