What is recorded here
Castle Mound is a scheduled monument in Cotswold, England. The land has stood through human history while people came and went. Whether it marked a boundary, a home or a warning is no longer certain. The mound still occupies the landscape and refuses to disappear.
The National Heritage List for England records Castle Mound 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 12th century, Castle Mound is thought to have been constructed by a Norman lord as part of the post-Conquest consolidation of power in the region. It is important as a scheduled monument, reflecting medieval military architecture and the strategic landscape of early Norman England.
The historic-place record does not grant public access. Check current conditions and ownership before entering land or a building.
