What is recorded here
The National Heritage List for England records Ashperton Castle 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.
Ashperton Castle was built in the 13th century by the de Montalt family, a prominent noble lineage in the region. It is remembered for its strategic importance in the medieval period and as an example of early military architecture in the area.
