Nice to visit if in area. Parking for 2-3 cars outside or grass verge further down towards old church which is worth a visit too. You can now access the inside of castle as locks cut. No information boards.

Good place to have a look round shame that is so poorly kept and the gates have been broken into.

Interesting remains of a 12 century Norman motte and bailey castle. Its changed ownership many times over the centuries, starting off with William the conqueror half brother. All that remains is the gate tower and the remaining vaulted cellars at the back. Stone from here was used for the church at swainby. Its a shame that its been left in this state
