Site Record

Y Gaer is a small, partly-bivallate hillfort of no great strength occupying a small, flat-topped knoll overlooked from the north; the banks enclose an area measuring some 135m north-north-east to south-south-west by 40m wide. The north side is weakly defended but the steep south side is defended by a double scarp with a wide, flat berm giving the impression of a cultivation terrace. There is indeterminate scarping on the east and west and the outer bank and north-east entrance have been quarried away.
