A earth and rock mound situated by the side of the South West Coast path near to Pordenack point and the rugged cliffs of the high Cornish coast.
There is a slate plaque which marks this spot as bronze age.
Around the area there appears to be what look like Reaves or enclosures however after further reading suggest that it was an iron age Promontory Fort or Cliff Castle [https://www.megalithic.co.uk/article.php?sid=29323]
