What is recorded here

Castle Hill in East Dunbartonshire, Scotland, is an iron age fort, which means people shaped that hill before written history and still left a mark the land remembers. It may have been a stronghold, a shelter or a boundary marker, but the earth keeps the shape while the names and tools are gone.
Scotland's National Record of the Historic Environment records Castle Hill as Fort (iron Age). 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.

The historic-place record does not grant public access. Check current conditions and ownership before entering land or a building.
