About

There are marvellous, panoramic views over the surrounding countryside, a picnic area and car park. Shell fossils bound in the stones around the fort. Graded walks and a nature trail give visitors the opportunity to see the woodland and its wildlife.

DIRECTIONS: From Bishop’s Castle take B4385 towards Craven Arms and Lydbury North. Turn off right to Brockton and follow the road through Lower Down. Carry straight on towards Clunton and at the top of a rise is a clearing on the right for car parking. Walk up the path (not the forest road) and at the top climb over the gate. On leaving turn right and follow the road to Clunton (turning right again to Clun). From Clun take the B4368 to Clunton and turn left. The carpark is about two miles on the left.
