What is recorded here
The National Heritage List for England records Ravensburgh 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.
Ravensburgh Castle was built in the 12th century by the de Vesci family, a powerful northern noble house, and later held by the Crown. It is remembered for its strategic importance in controlling the region during the medieval period.
The historic-place record does not grant public access. Check current conditions and ownership before entering land or a building.
