The site comprises a fortified enclosure associated with contemporary settlements and an organised field system, reflecting the economic and social structures of Iron Age communities in the region. The fort's defensive characteristics and spatial relationship to the surrounding settlement evidence indicate a settlement of some significance during the pre-Roman Iron Age period.
