Rounded with a flattened base, it is composed of angular fine grained (mainly grey) fragments in a red sandstone matrix.                   This rubber was found at Camphill, a hill fort defended by two stone faced ramparts and steep ditches. When it was excavated in 1960 the remains of timber buildings were found inside the ramparts.
