What is recorded here
The National Heritage List for England records Membury 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.
Membury Castle is a Norman motte-and-bailey castle, built in the 12th century, likely by a local landowner or noble following the Norman Conquest. It is important as a well-preserved example of early medieval military architecture in England.
The historic-place record does not grant public access. Check current conditions and ownership before entering land or a building.
