What is recorded here

The National Heritage List for England records Hereford 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.
Hereford Castle was built in the 11th century, following the Norman Conquest, and was held by several prominent noble families, including the de Say and later the Earls of Worcester. It is important as a key medieval fortress in the Welsh Marches and as an example of Norman military architecture.

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