Yatton Hill boasts some tremendous views of the Marches region as well as housing the ancient hillfort of Croft Ambrey. The fort is thought to have once covered over 2 acres (0.8 ha) of land and its earthwork ramparts can still be seen today. Excavations in the 1960s found various treasures, such as metal tools, Iron Age pottery and glass objects. Historians believe that between 500 and 900 people lived on the site.

Hiking

Stunning views from the top of the Crofy Ambrey Iron Age Hill Fort, a perfect place for a picnic. We combined and followed two of the National Trust walks starting from Croft Castle (we found the walks very well sign posted) This view is from the 'Croft Ambrey Walk' and takes you through the fort and its ramparts.
