Scope and Content Plan of the fort and settlement on Knock Hill, Dumfries and Galloway. Redrawn from DC 32365 for publication as comparative plan. Situated some 2km south-west of Beattock, the summit of Knock Hill is occupied by a fort partially overlain by a later enclosed settlement. Both sites have been badly damaged by stone robbing. Only the arc of rampart and rock-cut ditch on the south remains of the earlier fort. Two possible hut-platforms are visible within the settlement, lying adjacent to the entrance and a third can be seen outside the fort, immediately to the east. Source: RCAHMS contribution to SCRAN.
