GARE HILL
(CRAER HILL)
UNCERTAIN EARTHWORK
ST 777398. A small circular earthwork on Craer Hill (Gare Hill) is referred to, in passing, by Hoare, and is marked on his map as a sub-rectangular 'camp' astride the road... (1) The site indicated by Hoare is at the end of a low ridge and suitable for both defensive and non-defensive enclosure. The work may still exist but a dense undergrowth of bracken, bramble and rhododendron makes the area virtually impenetrable. (2/1969) There is now no trace of this earthwork [1978].
