Just read in Heritage Daily that a team from Reading University have examined Skipsea Castle mound in North Yorkshire and found that it dates from 500 BC and not from Norman times as previously thought. It measures 85m in circumference and 13m in height. Perhaps there are other motes which will be re-evaluated in future and yield evidence of reuse.


I think it's almost certain. Marlborough Mound alone could've been enough evidence to start a serious look at this.
