Fillongley Castle Hills is a Norman earth and timber ringwork and
bailey fortress, founded by Robert Marmion. Standing on low-lying
ground, the oval platform supports a strong rampart and with its
weak bailey, is encased by a deep ditch. Thanks to Castle Net for the info. More detail can be
found at timetrail.warwickshire.gov.uk
The cache is located away from the stoneworks along one of
entrance/exit paths. You can make a nice circular walk, taking in
the ruins by accessing the site from Castle Close entrance or for a
quick cache and dash, park at the Manor House and walk up past the
Cave News agents and right onto the signed public path.
Likely sheep in the area, so dogs on a lead please. May be
muggles about as it's a camping spot also.
Free parking is available on Castle Close Road in Fillongley at
the start of the public footpath or on the Pub car park for the
quick cache and dash. (See Parking waypoints below).
The cache is a clear 1 ltr plastic box of the Loc 'n' Loc
variety with a variety of goodies in it.
