Univallate hillfort 250m south and a bowl barrow 300m south east of Castle Dykes Farm is a prehistoric earthwork monument located in Northamptonshire. The site comprises two distinct archaeological features: a univallate hillfort characterised by a single defensive bank and ditch, and a Bronze Age bowl barrow situated to its south-east. These monuments represent different periods of prehistoric settlement and burial practice in the region, with the barrow likely dating to the Bronze Age and the hillfort potentially belonging to the Iron Age.
