What is recorded here
Castlehaw (Motte & Bailey) still holds the shape of a defensible home in Westmorland and Furness. A raised mound and surrounding ditch would have given watchmen height, forced visitors into a narrow approach, and let fear do half the work of guarding. People may have lived there, argued there, or fled from it, while the earth kept the outline of their choices.
Castlehaw (Motte & Bailey) is shown as a archaeological place on the public map of Westmorland and Furness. The saved point is the map point or the centre of its mapped shape.
