For the Queen’s Jubilee, Crich Parish Council with the collaboration of the Sherwood Foresters built a beacon on the site which, fired by propane gas took part in the 'Fires over England' celebrations.

The site is said to have many beacons previously and was likely part of the chain used in 1588 to warn of the approaching Spanish Armada.
