What is recorded here

Muddy feet and frightened children. Adults ran for the hills because the enclosure stood north of Pen-y-Castell Hillfort, Castle Hill Llanilar. Defended walls and sharp thinking turned a ordinary field into a place where life continued when everywhere else flew apart.

The National Monuments Record of Wales records Defended Enclosure North of Pen-y-Castell Hillfort, Castle Hill Llanilar as Defended Enclosure from the Iron Age; Roman period. The saved point comes from the official national record. Inclusion does not by itself mean that the public may enter the place.
