Holne Chase Hill Fort/Castle sits on the northern promontory of Holne Chase. Historic England provides a description of the ramparts; “This monument includes a slight univallate hillfort situated on the north facing side of a prominent hill called Holne Chase overlooking the valley of the River Dart. The hillfort survives as an oval enclosure measuring 120m long by 96m wide internally, defined by a single rampart and ditch with a counterscarp bank present to the north east, west and south west. It has two entrances, a simple gap to the south east and an inturned entrance to the south west.

Further Notes: Holne Chase private land, so please obtain permission from the landowner before you visit.
