Castle Wood Cropmark

Defended Enclosure

What is recorded here

Castle Wood Cropmark is an Iron Age defended enclosure hidden beneath the soil of the Vale of Glamorgan. Its boundary still presses through the ground, waiting for rain or sunlight to reveal the shape of a place that has watched the wood for centuries.
The National Monuments Record of Wales records Castle Wood Cropmark as Defended Enclosure from the Iron Age period. The saved point comes from the official national record. Inclusion does not by itself mean that the public may enter the place.

The historic-place record does not grant public access. Check current conditions and ownership before entering land or a building.
