What is recorded here

Breckland soils still hold the layered roots of Red Castle, where a medieval ringwork sits above older churches, settlement marks and a Late Saxon town ditch. The earth has kept more than stone, saving a long chain of human choice in one small place.

The National Heritage List for England records Red Castle: a medieval ringwork castle overlying Mid-Saxon and early medieval churches, Romano-British, Saxon and medieval settlement remains, and a Late Saxon town ditch 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.
