Image:Brinklow castle mound.jpg

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The remains of a large Norman motte-and-bailey castle at Brinklow in Warwickshire, England.

At one time a wooden fort would have stood on top of the mound which measures 13 metres (40 feet) high. The castle at Brinklow is especially well preserved, and has been declared an Ancient Monument.

This one is believed to be built upon the site of an ancient burial mound, which pre-dated the Norman invasion, although this has not been proved.
