Castle Hill is a scheduled ancient monument located in Sussex, England, comprising an earthwork of Iron Age date. The site consists of a defensive enclosure formed by banks and ditches, characteristic of the hillfort tradition practised across southern Britain during the later Iron Age period. Its physical configuration and archaeological context indicate it served a significant settlement or defensive function during prehistoric times, though detailed excavation records and specific chronological refinement remain limited in the public scholarly record. The monument survives as an important example of Iron Age settlement archaeology within the Sussex landscape.
