Durpley Castle

Scheduled monument

What is recorded here

The National Heritage List for England records Durpley 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.
Durpley Castle is a 12th-century motte-and-bailey castle built by the de Ferrers family, who were prominent Norman lords in the East Midlands. It is important as a well-preserved example of early medieval military architecture and as evidence of Norman settlement and control in the region.

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