Ravensworth quadrangular castle

The National Heritage List for England records Ravensworth quadrangular 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.

Ravensworth quadrangular castle was built in the 13th century by the de Vesci family, a prominent northern noble lineage. It is remembered as an example of medieval military architecture and for its historical association with the barons who resisted King John, including its role in the First Barons' War.
