What is recorded here
Mortars and chambers still stand 800m NNW of Rough Castles, preserving the shape of a settlement built to resist rather than rely on distance. Rough Castles gives the area its identity, while the defended place reminds that identity belongs to choice as much as birth.
The National Heritage List for England records Defended settlement, 800m NNW of Rough Castles 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.
