Castle Goff is a motte-and-bailey castle located in Cornwall, England, dating to the Norman period following the conquest of 1066. The site comprises a substantial earthwork mound with an associated bailey, representing a characteristic form of early medieval fortification constructed by Norman settlers to establish control over newly conquered territory. The monument survives as an important example of Norman defensive architecture in the south-west of England, preserving the earthwork remains that demonstrate the spatial organisation and strategic principles of eleventh and twelfth-century castle design.
