Kelsey Head

Kelsey Head is a coastal Site of Special Scientific Interest and headland in north Cornwall, England [1]. The site contains an Iron Age hill fort [1]. The headland is the site of earthwork remains of a 170-metre by 160-metre cliff castle, dated to the Iron Age [1]. But there is evidence of earlier habitation on the site, of Mesolithic and Neolithic periods, through the discovery of flint flakes not related to the cliff castle [1]. The cliff castle features evidence of earth and stone ramparts, a smaller annexe and an earthwork and external ditch protecting the south-eastern, inland, side [1].
