What is recorded here

Kinnerton Court rises in Powys as a medieval motte, its earthwork shaped by hands that understood fear and pride alike. The hill may have worn a small castle or a guarded courtyard, exposing whoever lived there to weather and warning alike. Its shape still separates the ordinary field from the exceptional moment when human beings first claimed the sky.

The National Monuments Record of Wales records Kinnerton Court, Motte; Kinnerton Castle as Motte from the Medieval period. The saved point comes from the official national record. Inclusion does not by itself mean that the public may enter the place.

Kinnerton Castle was built in the late 11th or early 12th century, likely by Norman settlers following the conquest of Wales. It is remembered as a strategic defensive site in the medieval Anglo-Welsh border region.
