Smythapark

Smythapark is the site of an Iron Age hill fort near Bratton Fleming in Devon, England, positioned on a promontory above a tributary of the River Yeo at approximately 200 m above sea level. The hillfort features defensive banks with entries aligned obliquely through the ramparts, a characteristic design of Iron Age construction in the region. The surrounding area is rich in small enclosures, suggesting broader prehistoric land use in the landscape.
