Slight univallate hillfort called Hilton Wood Castle

Scheduled monument

What is recorded here

Hilton Wood Castle is a slight univallate hillfort in Cornwall, England, recognised as a scheduled monument. Its single rampart still traces a small defensive circle on the land, marking a place where people once chose height and visibility. The formal protection warns that entry may be restricted, yet the shape itself invites imagination about the hands that built it and the lives that turned along its edge.
The National Heritage List for England records Slight univallate hillfort called Hilton Wood Castle as a scheduled monument. The saved point comes from the centre supplied by the official record. Listing 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.
