Hickley Wood hillfort

The National Heritage List for England records Hickley Wood hillfort 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.

Hickley Wood hillfort is a prehistoric defensive earthwork, likely dating to the Iron Age rather than the early medieval period, and is distinguished from fairy forts (ringforts/raths), which are typically later in date and of Irish or Scottish origin. While primarily of archaeological significance, no specific folklore is widely recorded in association with this site.
