Summary: | Castle Hill, near Widworthy Barton. Unknown (Post-War). An unusual small fortified site, possibly a late Saxon manor or burh, or counterpart of the medieval moated sites of the lowlands. Top of a hillock has been levelled, scarped and ditched, but not embanked, forming an enclosure about 30m square. Entrance probably at southwest angle, a low bank and track extending from this point to a spring head, which has a leat to a fishpond about 90m westnorthwest. In fairly good condition. |
