Castle Hill is a motte and bailey castle situated approximately 900 metres north-northeast of All Saint's Church in Buckinghamshire. The monument comprises a substantial earthwork consisting of a raised motte, or mound, with an associated bailey or defensive enclosure, typical of Norman fortifications constructed in the decades following 1066. The castle represents an important example of early medieval military architecture in the region, reflecting the Norman settlement pattern and defensive requirements of the post-Conquest period. The earthworks remain substantially visible today as landscape features, preserving evidence of the castle's original layout and scale.
