What is recorded here
The National Heritage List for England records Reigate 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.
Reigate Castle was built by William the Conqueror in the late 11th century and later held by various noble families, including the powerful Bigod earls of Norfolk. It is important as a significant example of Norman military architecture and played a role in several key historical events, including the Barons' War of the 13th century.
The historic-place record does not grant public access. Check current conditions and ownership before entering land or a building.
