Tickhill Castle is a Norman motte-and-bailey castle situated in Tickhill, South Yorkshire, England, founded in the late eleventh century following the Norman Conquest. The castle comprises a substantial earthen mound with a deeply ditched bailey, representing a significant example of early Norman fortification in the region. The site was strategically positioned to control the surrounding landscape and served administrative and defensive functions throughout the medieval period. Though the castle has not survived with substantial standing masonry structures, the earthwork remains well-preserved and provides important evidence of Norman settlement patterns and territorial control in Yorkshire.
