Field work was carried out at the site, near Placentia, in 1965 and 1968. Castle Hill is the site of a redoubt built as one of the defences of Plaisance by the French in the late 17th century. Fort Royal was a small masonry redoubt begun in 1693 and completed about 1702. The French surrendered Placentia and its forts to the English in 1713. The British allowed the redoubt to decay for many years but rebuilt it when the military need arose, beginning construction in 1762. They erected a timber blockhouse and other structures on the remnant of the old French redoubt, naming the fort Castle Graves. The fort was used during the late 18th century, but had fallen into ruin again before its final abandonment about 1811"--Abstract. gccst Archaeological investigations gccst Historic sites Canada.
