2026-09-17 Burrow Fort & Hopesay Hill

We parked in Aston on Clun, which has a lot of strange buildings for somewhere so small.

Round House 1
No clue why
The Malthouse
Be careful going home after a late night
Round House 2
The Arbour Tree is decorated with flags every May
Hesterworth Hall

We headed up to Burrow Fort, another iron age hill fort.

Can still see the banks & ditches
Caer Caradoc in the far distance

Then over the fields the other side, down into Hopesay.

Party dudes… Fun guys…

Other interesting things seen in fields

Cobbled-together gate
Moo!
Rose hips
Clover
Achillea
Thistle

We stopped for lunch in Hopesay churchyard

We went up to another hill fort on Wart Hill, but there wasn’t much remains of it left. But, there were marvellous views all around

We followed a delightful grassy path over Hopesay Hill and through the woods back down to Aston on Clun.

Chicken pieces & jacket potatoes for supper.
