What is recorded here
The National Heritage List for England records Perborough 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.
Perborough Castle was built in the 12th century, likely by the de Perborough family, and later held by the powerful Montagu family in the 13th century. It is remembered for its strategic importance in the medieval landscape of the region and as an example of early motte-and-bailey castle design.
The historic-place record does not grant public access. Check current conditions and ownership before entering land or a building.
