What is recorded here

Ennor Castle stands in Old Town, St Mary's as a scheduled monument, marking a defended residence that watched the sea and shaped local life long before modern roads arrived. Its stones may have hidden chambers, staircases and small rooms where people argued, loved and feared storms. The castle still belongs to memory, even when no gate remains open for visitors.

The National Heritage List for England records Ennor Castle, Old Town, St Mary's 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.

Ennor Castle was built in the 13th century by the de Insula family, likely as a defensive stronghold in the Scilly Isles. It is important as one of the few surviving medieval stone castles in the Isles of Scilly and is protected as a scheduled monument due to its historical and archaeological significance.
