What is recorded here

The National Heritage List for England records Cranmore 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.
Cranmore Castle was built in the 13th century by the de Mohun family, a prominent Devonian landholding family. It is remembered as an example of early medieval military architecture and for its strategic role in the defense of the region during the Hundred Years' War.

The historic-place record does not grant public access. Check current conditions and ownership before entering land or a building.
