Pan Castle stands in Shropshire as a scheduled monument, preserving the earthworks of a motte and bailey castle from the medieval era. The mound and ditch remain visible markers of a defensive structure built to control local land and movement. Listing protects the site but does not guarantee public entry, leaving the castle hidden behind private boundaries and local knowledge.
The National Heritage List for England records Pan Castle: a 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.

The historic-place record does not grant public access. Check current conditions and ownership before entering land or a building.
