Maiden Castle, Motte, in Kennoway, Fife, NO 3495 0152, is described by the RCAHMS as being at "Dunipace Hill". This is incorrect, it should read DuniFace Hill, cf. OS maps etc. Dunipace is elsewhere, though it does have a hill very like this one. For more on Duniface, cf. S. Taylor with G Markus, place-Names of Fife vol. 2, and http://fife-placenames.glasgow.ac.uk/placename/?id=1505.
