Beautiful , peaceful place! 2 minutes drive from the main road. Small parking lot. Very clean. You can have a picnic, walk your doggies in an quiet ambient. Really relaxing, birds singing, lovely little forest!

An Iron Age hill fort, now all woodland. Beautiful setting, an interesting site and a free car park. Is a small site, no more than 20 minutes to walk around. A lovely setting and good for a dog walk or picnic

Free entry and free parking. Beautiful spot for a picnic especially when the bluebells are in flower.

My happy place. Not matter the time of year, this is a beautiful place to be; to soak up the atmosphere, marvel at the history and love the trees as they change their clothes as the seasons change. Free parking can be crowded in bluebell time (worth it). A lovely place for my dogs (no dog poo bins, so pick up and take home) and a perfect place to just bimble around with my camera. Photo taken last winter, near the access lane

Visited in October, free small car park, much larger than I had thought, a lovely Fort to visit, popular with dog walkers.

Lovely piece of ancient history (4th century BC). Atmospheric. Nice short stroll round with two informative interpretation boards. I'm told there are loads of bluebells in the spring.

Beautiful ancient woodland, and earthen work fort. An amazing place to see blankets of bluebells in the spring, explore the perimeter and for the children to play on a few rope swings. Good parking, although can be muddy, and a great place to start a walk. Great route from here to Branscombe, but beware you have to cross a busy A road. Have had a few picnics here, with the trees providing much needed shade in summer, and great point of interest (if you're into trees!). A wonderful area, sometimes spoiled by dog poo, keep the very young close to hand.
