What is recorded here

Clavering Castle is a large moated site in Uttlesford, England, dating to Saxon or medieval times. Its deep ditch and broad earthworks show that people shaped the River Stort, built banks and possibly a mill, and kept water moving through the land. The castle stood close to the parish church, where royal visits and chapel gifts marked the place as important. Even in prehistoric times, bronze tools buried near the Bury suggest the valley was already a place of ritual and memory.

Clavering Castle is shown as a castle on the public map of Uttlesford. The saved point is the map point or the centre of its mapped shape.

Clavering Castle was built in the 13th century by the de Clavering family, a prominent local landholding family in Hertfordshire. It is remembered as a significant medieval stronghold and is associated with the historical development of the Clavering area.
