What is recorded here

Castle Hill in North Ayrshire is an unknown-period natural feature rather than a built castle, which means the dramatic name may be doing more work than the stone. It is the kind of place where people imagine walls, guard rooms and forgotten lords because a hill can hold shadow the way a room holds furniture. The absence of a clear date makes the legend larger: the higher the hill, the more story it can carry.

Scotland's National Record of the Historic Environment records Castle Hill as Natural Feature (period Unknown). The official map says its point is accurate as follows: NGR given to the nearest 10m. The record does not by itself mean that the public may enter the place.
