An interesting point, I was in the Slad area of the Cotswolds today - walking up Swift Hill which is as you describe. Also walked up to The Mound (as described on the OS map) on top of another un-named hill - covered with beech trees, protected by a stone wall and wire fence. Was wondering if some of these irregular mound like shapes are due to the intensive quarrying of cotswold stone. Different county, the obvious example in Wiltshire is Picked Hill which is described as a sacred hill and, although a little like Silbury in shape, is natural.
