Sweetworthy is the site of two Iron Age hill forts or enclosures at Luccombe, 4 kilometres south of Porlock, Somerset [1]. They are on the north-facing slope of Dunkery Hill [1]. One has a single rampart and external ditch, enclosing 0.25 hectares [1]. The rampart is still visible and the ditch on the east side is used as a trackway [1].
