Described by Heritage Gateway; “Overgrown earthworks in Houndtor Wood, Manaton. Single ditch and bank covering a portion of the promontory with a causewayed enclosure. To the north-west and south-east the defences end in natural ground contour. Possibly Iron Age in date, although could be later.”

Reference:

• Dartmoor HER

The hill here, above Houndtor Ridge, is known locally as Riddy Hill. Easily accessed by a public footpath, the banks here are worth a quick look, but sadly the once fine views have been obscured by foliage and trees.
