What is recorded here

Mulgrave Castle is a registered Grade II* park and garden in North Yorkshire where three structures occupied the same land across the centuries. The oldest is a legendary castle attributed to Wada, the second is a Norman stronghold destroyed by Parliament in 1647, and the third is a country house later held by the Phipps family. Roman bricks still appear inside the Norman work, and the wall bulged outward where uneven ground pulled at it, as if the castle had grown rather than been built.
The National Heritage List for England records Mulgrave Castle as a registered park or garden at Grade II*. 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.

The historic-place record does not grant public access. Check current conditions and ownership before entering land or a building.
