Site Details:
Dundon Hill as it appears on the 1850 OS map.
There is a plan and short description in volume 2 of the Victoria County History for Somerset (pages 490-1).
Ian Burrow's Hillfort and Hill-top Settlement in Somerset in the First to Eighth Centuries has a more recent (but less detailed) description at p 214.
It's about 4.8 ha in area and univallate. No excavations seem to have been carried out though before the First World War flint and pottery scatters were found there.
