Description
Earl’s Hill Hillfort is an Iron Age enclosure 7 miles south west of Shrewsbury and immediately south east of the village of Pontesbury, Shropshire. The site consists of an earlier oval enclosure on the summit with a defended north gate and a later elongated annexe to the south extending along the top of the ridge. There is another defended enclosure approx. 400ft down through the woodland to the north known as Pontesford Hill Hillfort which is covered in trees.
