What is recorded here

Castle Ditches on Bedstone Hill in Shropshire is a scheduled monument, meaning the state recognises the buried or hidden shape of an old enclosed settlement. The name suggests ditches cut to keep people in or out, perhaps both at once. No date, owner or event is supplied, so the place must be judged by what its shape still does: it holds a boundary.

The National Heritage List for England records Castle Ditches: an enclosed settlement on Bedstone Hill as a scheduled monument. The saved point comes from the centre supplied by the official record. Listing does not by itself mean that the public may enter the place.
