Castle Frome Castle is a motte-and-bailey castle located in the parish of Castle Frome in Herefordshire, England. The site dates from the Norman period, likely established in the eleventh or twelfth century as part of the network of fortifications built following the Norman Conquest. The castle comprises an earthwork mound with surrounding ditches and banks, representing the characteristic defensive architecture of early Norman England. Though substantially ruined, the earthworks remain a significant archaeological monument documenting the Norman settlement and military organization of the Welsh Marches.
