Gaddick Hill is a medieval motte and bailey castle situated in Nottinghamshire, England. The site comprises an earthwork mound characteristic of Norman military architecture, typical of the period following the Norman Conquest of 1066, with associated bailey works that would have provided defensive and administrative functions for the surrounding territory. In the post-medieval period, the site was adapted for manorial purposes, reflecting the transition from military stronghold to landed estate centre. The earthworks remain visible as archaeological features of importance for understanding medieval settlement and lordship patterns in the region.
