== Description and history ==
When Thomas Pennant visited Montgomery in 1776, he noted "On a hill, not far from the castle, is a stupendous British post. The approach is guarded by four great ditches, with two or three entrances towards the main work, with two or three fosses run across the hill, the end of which is sufficiently guarded by its steepness".〔Pennant T, ‘A Tour in Wales, 1783 (2nd edition), Vol 2, 385〕 The site was described and surveyed in June 1909, by the RCHMW.〔RCHMW “An Inventory of Ancient Monuments in Wales, Volume 1, The County of Montgomery”, HMSO, 1911, 155-6〕 A detailed survey of the hillfort was published in 1932 by Dr Willoughby Gardner,〔Willoughby Gardner “Ffridd Faldwyn Hill Fort, near Montgomery”, Archaeologia Cambrensis 1932,Vol 87, 364-372〕 and this led to excavations being carried out by B. H. St John O’Neil between 1937 and 1939,〔St John O’Neil B H “Excavations at Ffridd Faldwyn Camp, Montgomeryshire,1937-39”, Archaeologia Cambrensis 1942, Vol 97 97〕〔(Gwefan CPAT )〕〔Burnham B “A Guide to Ancient and Historic Wales: Clwyd and Powys" HMSO, 1995, 68〕
