Scheduled monument

What is recorded here

Castle Hills is a motte and bailey castle in North Warwickshire, England, listed as a scheduled monument. The earthworks stand 700m NE of St Mary and All Saint's Church, marking a place where power once gathered before disappearing into grass and memory. Listing protects the site but does not guarantee entry, so the hills keep their distance even now.
The National Heritage List for England records Castle Hills: a motte and bailey castle 700m NE of St Mary and All Saint's 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.
Built in the late 11th or early 12th century, likely by a Norman lord following the conquest of 1066, Castle Hills is remembered as a typical example of early medieval military architecture in England. Its scheduling as a monument highlights its importance for understanding regional settlement and defense patterns.
