Probably built around 2500 years ago the Iron Age hill fort at Chun Castle is nearly 85 meters in diameter. It is possible that the walls of Chun Castle stood as high as six meters. Over the years however much of the stone has been robbed for building and hedging. This photograph was taken stood on one of the defensive walls looking west.
