The earthworks on Castle Hill are extensive. Lynchet banks spread around much of the Northern slopes of the hill. On top of the hill is a complete set of banks, hollows and terraced areas that would merit topographical survey. (4)
A number of houses have been built on the E side (of Castle Hill), one of which has a narrow wedge shaped garden which includes part of the scheduled area. (5)
