Monument record MDO50860 - Undated earthwork, quarry, Patson Hill, Castleton

A steep sided sub-oval earthwork on Patson Hill, Castleton, is visible as an earthwork on 2022 composite DTM lidar and current satellite imagery. The earthwork is shown on the OS Epoch 1 1:25 inch map, published in 1887. Its origin is uncertain but it is possibly a former quarry of post medieval date, some years of Google Earth imagery show it to contain water but it is now largely under vegetation and tree cover.
