Geocache Description:

Full kit essential up here on this hillside. Sheep roaming free. Parking is in Forgandenny village, or Bus 17 from Perth.

Castle Law is an ancient fort commanding great views.

The first hill-fort on the site was probably constructed during the Iron Age and consisted of a single-walled timber-laced oval fort. Modifications to the fort were carried out throughout the Iron Age, and it is possible that further alteration and occupation continued into the early medieval period.

The outline of the fort’s ramparts are clearly visible as well as the accompanying ditches give a clear impression of how the fort once looked.

Traces of at least ten platforms for timber round-houses can be seen on the ground within Castle Law.

Although I did not like to hide the cache on the fort itself, it is well worth the extra few steps for the view, and to see the various ramparts and structures of the Law.
