Yes sorry I've fixed that link now (as you were typing it would seem). Also there are two forts marked on the Ordnance Survey Explorer Map for Wyre Forest & Kidderminster (number 218). The one already in the article is for the one on the very southern tip of Kinver Edge at Drakelow. The other one I am suggesting adding to the article is on the far northern tip just SW of Kinver village. I suppose one could even argue that the fort at Drakelow should be in a separate Wikipedia entry under the title of "Drakelow Hillfort" because judging just purely on the OS map it looks to be beyond the southern tip of Kinver Edge but I don't have enough local knowledge to be sure. --

I am in a position now to add the second fort to the article if
PBS isn't working on it already? What would happen if I adjusted the title to "Kinver Edge Hillforts"? I am quite new to Wikipedia and I am unsure what effect this would have. --

As the two Hill forts are in different counties, I think it better that there are two different articles. I suggest that this article is moved to
Drakelow Hillfort, and place the site you have highlighted above is written up as
Kinver Edge Hillfort with a hatlink to
Kinver Edge Hillfort, Worcestershire which redirects to
Drakelow Hillfort (that should take care of searches). --

Okay thanks for the help
PBS. I've read up on how to move articles so I will do this now --
