Archaeologists excavating at the hillfort are opening the site for visitors interested in exploring their recent discoveries.

Traces of a possible roundhouse are among the sites being explored at Nesscliffe Hill.

They say visitors will see the stone entranceway to the hillfort fully exposed by the excavations, including a pair of exceptionally well-preserved guard chambers, all dating to 500BC. Indications that a roundhouse could have been on the hill were first seen by geophysical survey of the hillfort interior.

Anyone wanting to explore the works should gather on the path leading up to Oliver’s Point, which is signposted from both the Pines and Oaks car parks.
