Archaeology

Medieval shieling.


A number of shelters have been constructed within, and using, the collapsed stonework from the outer rampart, particularly on the north-east, east and south-east side of the hill (and thus protected from the prevailing wind).


They appear to be evidence for later seasonal use of the site as a shieling in the medieval period.
