What is recorded here

The National Heritage List for England records Ashby Castle and associated formal garden 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.
Ashby Castle was built in the 14th century by the de Ashby family, a prominent local landholding family in Leicestershire. It is remembered for its historical association with the English Civil War and for its well-preserved formal gardens, which reflect 17th-century design.

The historic-place record does not grant public access. Check current conditions and ownership before entering land or a building.
