What is recorded here
Ilton Castle has vanished into the South Hams soil, leaving behind a ghost shape rather than a standing wall. The ground may still hold the forgotten bones of its chambers, waiting for rain or curiosity to reveal them. What was built there has returned to dirt, but the dirt remembers the weight of human ambition.
Site of Ilton Castle is shown as a archaeological place on the public map of South Hams. The saved point is the map point or the centre of its mapped shape.
