What is recorded here
Castle Hill is a Norman motte and bailey earthwork standing 150 metres north west of St Michael and All Angels Church in Shropshire. The mound and platform mark the early castle-building tradition brought into England after 1066, though the identity of its founder and the length of its occupation remain unknown. Its closeness to the parish church suggests the castle shaped the local landscape, but no surviving account names the hand that raised it or the life lived inside its timber walls.
The National Heritage List for England records Castle Hill, 150m north west of St Michael and All Angels Church 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.
The historic-place record does not grant public access. Check current conditions and ownership before entering land or a building.
