What is recorded here

Stock Castle is an Iron Age defended settlement in North Devon, recorded as a scheduled monument. The name suggests a place made to resist, perhaps a hilltop camp where people watched the coast and kept what they valued. Listing protects the remains, but it does not promise entry, so the castle may still keep its distance.

The National Heritage List for England records Iron Age defended settlement called Stock 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.
