Later prehistoric cliff castle, two prehistoric round barrows, medieval field system, and associated remains on Dodman Point

Scheduled monument

What is recorded here

Dodman Point holds a later prehistoric cliff castle, two round barrows and a medieval field system, proving the coast has served human ambition for millennia. The castle clings to the cliff edge like a defiant fist, while the barrows wait beneath the grass like buried drums. Medieval ridges still cut the land, suggesting farms and feuds repeated long after the first builders left.
