Waitby Castle enclosed Romano-British settlement and part of a medieval dyke

Scheduled monument

What is recorded here

Waitby Castle is an enclosed Romano-British settlement and part of a medieval dyke in Westmorland and Furness, England. The Romano-British people built the enclosure, while a later medieval dyke cut across or joined the same land. The castle name may have come later, but the earthworks preserve at least two ages of human activity.
The National Heritage List for England records Waitby Castle enclosed Romano-British settlement and part of a medieval dyke 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.

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