What is recorded here

The National Heritage List for England records Cotherstone 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.

Cotherstone Castle was built in the 12th century by the de Cotherstone family, a local landholding family in the area. It is remembered as an example of a Norman motte-and-bailey castle and is significant for its historical role in the medieval landscape of northern England.
