		Penshaw appears to be one of the few classic triple rampart Iron Age hill forts known to exist in the north.
		Associated with the Penshaw Monument is the tale of the Lampton Worm, which is apparently how the hill got its rings, indeed this type of hill fort would be highly unusual, even in the period in which it was built few such ornate hill forts existed for hundred's of miles.
