South Barrule Hill Fort

4.7(24 reviews)

About

South Barrule Hill Fort serves Isle of Man as an ancient earthwork site on the island's southern uplands. It carries a 4.7 out of 5 from 24 reviews, a strong showing for a monument rather than a built attraction. From Douglas, Castletown, Port Erin and Peel the site is reachable by road, though the final approach is on foot across open hillside. The fort sits on the summit area of South Barrule, commanding the southern part of the island. It is an archaeological attraction rather than a staffed visitor centre, so walkers should come prepared for weather and rough ground. Douglas, Ramsey, Peel, Castletown, Port Erin, Port St Mary, Laxey and Onchan all lie within the island's road network, making a day trip feasible from any of them. British islands are reached by car ferries, passenger ferries and, in some cases, scheduled flights. Strong tides surround British islands, and the Channel Islands have some of the world's largest tidal ranges. Grey seals breed around British island coasts, and basking sharks appear in summer surface waters.
