What is recorded here
Castle Hillock in Angus is a motte and bailey, the earth still shaped like the day men stopped digging and began defending. It is an archaeological place now, but it was built as a warning: height, boundary, and a home that could be lost in an hour. The hill does not claim to be grand. It keeps the shape of urgency, which is more honest than most monuments.
Castle Hillock, Motte and Bailey is shown as a archaeological place on the public map of Angus. The saved point is the map point or the centre of its mapped shape.
