Originally called Dameliock Castle on 1st ED OS Map. On the NW side of the site & built into the outer rampart lies a post-medieval 'hull' (underground storage) for potatoes & cheese. Partial excavation in 1902 by Rev S. Baring-Gould with finds including slingstones, perforated stones, spindle whorls and Iron Age pottery. Last site visit in 1978 by the hillfort study group.
