Please do not place this category in the parent category "Lost settlements of the United Kingdom". These hillforts are not "lost" (we know very well where they are located!) and it is also not true to refer to them all as "settlements" either as some where used as only as temporary refuges. On both counts, therefore, the category is incorrect and sounds frankly ludicrous in this context. Enaidmawr (talk) 19:28, 10 December 2008 (UTC)Reply
This has been discussed at User talk:Enaidmawr. The intended meaning of "lost" is as stated at the cat page: no longer in existence, not location unknown. These cats are likely to be renamed to resolve the ambiguity. Individual hill forts will be assessed - at least some of them were settlements, according to archaeologists.
