Gaddick Hill is a medieval motte and bailey earthwork located in Nottinghamshire, England. The site comprises a raised mound typical of eleventh or twelfth-century castle construction, with associated bailey defences, representing a common form of Norman or early medieval fortification in the East Midlands region. The monument was subsequently adapted for post-medieval use as a manor house, indicating continuity of occupation and significance beyond the medieval period. The earthworks survive as a scheduled ancient monument and provide archaeological evidence of both medieval military architecture and the transition to later domestic occupation.
