History
One of many minor forts built by the Nishimaki Clan to protect their bases at Ota Yakata and Azumi Nishimaki Castle. The forts were built along a cliff overlooking a river
Visit Notes
The site of this former fort, Yanagizaka-toride (Fort-upon-Weeping Willow Hill), is now an apple tree orchard. This area is nowadays famous for apple production. There's little in the way of ruins of the fort. I thought I might've identified some climbing trenches, but they are very deformed now.
