Borough Fen Iron Age Hill Fort

Last week Moor Farm, Newborough mowed the grass for silage around the Borough Fen Iron Age Hill Fort, circa 300BC. A local tribe established a fortified enclosure on the Fen edge between the Welland and the Nene. This is a scheduled ancient monument. From above the outline of the fort can easily be seen - the moat is left unmowed as it’s still too uneven to mow. The site is bisected by Decoy Road and is now protected by pasture land, preventing ploughing or cultivation damaging any history below the surface. This makes perfect grazing for the farms free range beef and lamb (available at Moor Farm Shop), combined with the hedge rows, it provides great shelter for them in all directions.
