Rame Head or Ram Head is a coastal headland, southwest of the village of Rame in southeast Cornwall, England, United Kingdom [1]. It is part of the larger Rame Peninsula [1]. The natural site was used for a promontory fort in the Iron Age and the narrow neck of land was further excavated on the landward side with a central causeway, still visible [1]. The eastern part retains traces of round house platforms, though damaged by wartime construction [1].
