Brent Knoll Camp
Date Added: 6th Jan 2011
Site Type: Hillfort
Country: England (Somerset)
Visited: Yes on 1st Jan 1976
Brent Knoll Camp submitted by TheCaptain on 27th Apr 2004. Brent Knoll Hillfort, Somerset. ST341510.
This wonderful steep sided, flat topped hill rises 450 feet out of the Somerset Levels not far from the sea in Bridgwater Bay. Legend has it that it was created by the Devil when he was carving out Cheddar Gorge, and threw a handful of rock out towards the sea. Geology has it that this limestone outcrop of the Mendip hills dates from the Jurassic times of 300 million years ago. Personally, I always think it looks a bit like the hill out of Close Enco...

Herefordshire Beacon
Date Added: 13th Oct 2010
Site Type: Hillfort
Country: England (Herefordshire)
Visited: Yes on 18th Mar 2006
Herefordshire Beacon submitted by AJK on 3rd Sep 2006. The Herefordshire Beacon (aka British Camp) was constructed around the 4th century B.C. and in the centuries following, more banks and ditches were built lower down the hillside.
This iron age hill fort is one of a remarkable series of such sites that extend in a belt from the Dorset coast into north-eastern Wales. It is larger than many and also one of the most imposing of these ancient structures. It's unlikely that it could have withstood a long-sustained siege due to there being no natura...

Derreenataggart submitted by Johnny on 21st Jun 2002. Derreenataggart Stone Circle, Co. Cork (V665 463):

It is now incomplete: of an original fifteen or so stones, nine remain erect and three are now prostrate.
