What is recorded here

The National Heritage List for England records Glead's Cleugh Iron Age promontory fort as a scheduled monument. The saved point comes from the centre supplied by the official record. Listing does not by itself mean that the public may enter the place.
Glead's Cleugh Iron Age promontory fort is a defensive structure located on a rocky promontory, likely dating to the Iron Age, though it may have been reused or occupied into the early medieval period. While primarily of archaeological significance, such sites were sometimes later associated with local folklore, including beliefs in fairy hauntings or other supernatural elements common in Celtic tradition.

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