The following are mottes (allegedly) and are examples of mounds all around the UK that originally got me started thinking along this particular line.

Another one in Ireland.

Although they all are claimed to have been purpose built by the castle builders, I doubt much evidence is extant - core samples, excavations etc.
as only outermost layers are of much interest to archaeo's who actually have excavated mottes, as they will usually have assumed the date of the mound to be contemporary with the earliest castle building phase only.
