The hill provides extensive views of the surrounding countryside and the English Channel to the south.

The southern half of the hill is owned and maintained by The National Trust (which permits free public access throughout the year) with the northern part in private ownership.

The defences consist of three ramparts with two medial ditches with additional outer banks to the north-west and east.

Although the trees were later felled on government orders, the octagonal earthworks used to protect them from the elements is still visible today and marked on Ordnance Survey maps of the area.
