What is recorded here
Letcombe Castle stands in the Vale of White Horse as an Iron Age fort, its earthworks still shaping the hillside where people once lived beneath open skies. The name Segsbury appears alongside it, a reminder that human memory has tangled around the place for centuries. Whether traders, families or warriors walked those slopes, the land kept their shape long after they vanished.
Segsbury or Letcombe Castle (iron age fort) is shown as a archaeological place on the public map of Vale of White Horse. The saved point is the map point or the centre of its mapped shape.
