Castle Hill ringwork is a Norman fortification located in Lincolnshire, England, comprising an earthwork defence system typical of early medieval castle architecture. The site consists of a raised circular or oval mound surrounded by a ditch, representing a common form of castle construction employed in the 11th and 12th centuries following the Norman Conquest. Such ringworks functioned as defensive strongholds for local lords and served administrative purposes within the feudal hierarchy of medieval England. The earthwork survives as a scheduled monument and provides archaeological evidence of Norman settlement patterns and military organisation in the East Midlands region.
