Category talk:Hill forts in Somerset

Latest comment: 15 years ago by Vicarage in topic Remove from Somerset forts category

I dont understand how to modify category pages but there are additional hillforts in Somerset, while Dunster and Castle Cary are Norman castles not hill forts. The additional hillforts are :-

Bat's Castle 
Black Ball Camp
Blacker's Hill
Bury Castle
Castle Neroche
Clatworthy Camp
Cow Castle 
Kenwalch's Castle
Kingsdown Camp

Thanks for this - you add items to the category by adding Category:Hill forts in Somerset at the bottom of relevant artciles - they then appear in the cat.

Castle Cary does not appear in the category. If you feel you have enough information from reliable sources to start these new articles please do.— Rod talk 15:44, 26 April 2008 (UTC)Reply

Thanks for the info. I have started articles on each of the hillforts, with references. Further information on their history is desirable but I don't have it available. It may well be available in VCH Somerset. Though Castle Cary is not in the Category, Cary Castle is! Adresia (talk) 22:01, 26 April 2008 (UTC)Reply

Remove from Somerset forts category

edit

I think this category should be removed from the Forts in Somerset category, as the meaning of ancient and modern forts is quite distinct. Most other counties do not include hill forts

See [1] for the uneven pattern. Ditto Cornwall. Vicarage (talk) 07:05, 7 May 2009 (UTC)Reply
