Interesting facts about this location
Rispain Camp
Rispain Camp is the remains of a fortified farmstead 1 mile west of Whithorn, Wigtownshire, Dumfries and Galloway, Scotland. It is one of the major Iron Age archaeological sites in Scotland. Today it consists of two broad earth banks separated by a ditch, originally almost six metres deep surrounding an enclosure of almost half a hectare. Its defences are so well preserved that until the mid 1970s archaeologists believed the site to be either a Roman fort or mediaeval farmstead.
