What is recorded here
The National Heritage List for England records Queenborough 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.
Queenborough Castle was built by the de Verdon family in the 13th century and later held by the Crown. It is important as a well-preserved example of a medieval river crossing fortress and played a strategic role in controlling access to the River Medway.
The historic-place record does not grant public access. Check current conditions and ownership before entering land or a building.
