What is recorded here

Hallaton Castle Hill carries a lost castle in its rounded shape, building a temporary home for people who wanted to control the surrounding land. The earth still holds the shape of that choice even when every wooden room and stone anchor has vanished. Walking across the hill is an act of imagination, completing what time erased.
Hallaton (Castle Hill) Motte & Baily is shown as a archaeological place on the public map of Harborough. The saved point is the map point or the centre of its mapped shape.
