Hill Forts
Of the Bronze and Iron Ages they are fortified refuges or defended settlements located to exploit a rise in elevation for defensive advantage. The fortifications usually follow the contours of the hill, consisting of one or more lines of earthworks, with stockades or defensive walls, and external ditches.
