    The largest defensive earthworks in greater Exmoor, Shoulsbury Castle was named after the Roman-Celtic God Sulius Minerva. It is thought to date back to either the Iron Age or Roman times. You can still see the ditches and rampart, although none of the original castle remains. The hill is 472 metres (1,549 feet) metres above sea level and has great views over Exmoor.
