What is recorded here

Motte and bailey castle 650m NNW of Sandpoint Farm is a scheduled monument in North Somerset, England. The earthworks stand half a kilometre from the farm, marking a defensive site where human hands shaped the land into a stronghold. Whether the castle guarded a valley, a road or a family remains unknown. The monument status protects the shape of that choice, even when the name and purpose have faded from memory.
