Scheduled monument

What is recorded here

The National Heritage List for England records West Hills multivallate 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.
West Hills multivallate hillfort is a prehistoric defensive earthwork featuring multiple concentric banks and ditches, typical of the later Iron Age in Britain. While not a fairy fort in the traditional sense, such sites were sometimes later associated with folklore, including beliefs in hidden fairy realms or ancient supernatural activity.

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