The Inclined Wall

One of the rare inclined stone forts in the entire country

The inclined wall was a stone fort built parallel to the slope from the castle bailey to the main bailey acting like a barricade.

The characteristics of the wall was that it not only surrounded flat areas like the castle bailey but also slopes.

It had the function of obstructing the advancing enemy forcing them to move sideways.

Recent archaeological excavations have revealed that there was a stone wall and pillars which supported the wall and we were able to confirm the width of the fort.

You can go to where the southern end of the fort is thought be situated.

It is marked by a plate on the pavement on the south side.
