Killibury Castle later Prehistoric hillfort

Scheduled monument

What is recorded here

Killibury Castle is a later prehistoric multivallate hillfort near Wadebridge in Cornwall, England, where concentric earthworks still circle the summit. Iron Age communities shaped that prominent hill into a defensible centre, using layered ditches and ramparts to control territory and preserve settlement. The preserved ground suggests people watched the valley, resisted intrusion and sustained local life long before Roman roads reached the area.
The National Heritage List for England records Killibury Castle later Prehistoric 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.

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