Pompocali Pompocali is an area of earthworks, just south of Hetchell Wood between Bardsey and Scarcroft. It is traditionally believed to be the remains of a Roman Fort. However recent research suggests that it is more likely to be waste material from nearby quarrying around Hetchell Crags, possibly in the Roman period.
