Berry Castle, Weare Giffard
Coordinates: 50°58′45″N 4°08′45″W / 50.9793°N 4.1457°W
Berry Castle is an Iron Age Hill fort close to Weare Giffard in Devon to the North of Great Torrington. The fort takes the form of an oval enclosure situated on a promontory in Huntshaw Wood some 95 Metres above Sea Level.[1] Recent tree clearance (2015) has revealed that the 'fort' is rectangular in shape with entrances at either end, and may be a Roman camp or a local example of a neolithic sky burial enclosure.
