What is recorded here
The National Heritage List for England records Spofforth Castle magnates' residence 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.
Spofforth Castle was built in the 12th century by the de Spofforth family, a prominent Yorkshire landowning family. It is remembered as an example of a medieval magnates' residence and for its historical association with the region's feudal aristocracy.
The historic-place record does not grant public access. Check current conditions and ownership before entering land or a building.
