What is recorded here

Misarden Park holds a buried castle where a tall mound once rose above Stroud, marking a boundary or a home for people who no longer leave names behind. The earth still carries the shape of that choice, waiting for boots to press against it and imagine the life lost beneath the grass.

The National Heritage List for England records Misarden Park motte and bailey 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.

Misarden Park motte and bailey castle was built in the 12th or 13th century, likely by a local Norman lord or military commander. It is remembered as an example of early medieval fortification and is protected as a scheduled monument due to its historical and archaeological significance.
