Hell Wood moated site and enclosure

The National Heritage List for England records Hell Wood moated site and enclosure 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.

Hell Wood moated site and enclosure is a medieval earthwork featuring a circular bank and ditch, typical of early-medieval ringforts or raths. While its exact date is uncertain, such structures are often associated with the early medieval period and, in Irish and British folklore, may be linked to fairy forts, places believed to be entrances to the Otherworld or inhabited by supernatural beings.
