What is recorded here

Abbotsbury Castle (camp) is a scheduled monument in Dorset, England. The official record supplies its centre and protects the remains, even though entry still needs separate permission. The land holds more than a point on a page; it waits for boots, breath and memory to complete what survey leaves unfinished.

The National Heritage List for England records Abbotsbury Castle (camp) as a scheduled monument. The saved point comes from the centre supplied by the official record. Listing does not by itself mean that the public may enter the place.

Abbotsbury Castle is believed to have been built by the Abbots of Glastonbury in the 13th century as a defensive structure to protect their nearby estates. It is important as a rare example of monastic military architecture and is remembered for its historical association with Glastonbury Abbey.
