Ringwork castle 80m south west of Castle Farm is a motte-and-bailey fortification situated in Warwickshire, England. The site comprises earthwork defences characteristic of Norman military architecture, dating to the medieval period, likely the eleventh or twelfth century. The ringwork represents an important example of early medieval defensive settlement in the region, constructed during the period of Norman consolidation of English territories following 1066. Such fortifications served administrative and defensive functions for the local feudal hierarchy and have survived as significant archaeological monuments despite the loss of any standing structures.
