Castle Hill fortified manor is a medieval fortified residence located in Nottinghamshire, England. The site comprises earthwork remains indicative of a manorial stronghold of the medieval period, with its defensive features reflecting the security concerns of the landholding classes during the Middle Ages. The surviving archaeological evidence, including ditches and raised platforms, demonstrates the structure of a fortified settlement rather than a full castle in the conventional military sense. Such fortified manors were common amongst the English gentry and nobility, serving both as domestic residences and symbols of territorial authority during the medieval centuries.
