Details
Culverhay Castle was built in a ringwork design in the village of Englishcombe, Somerset.[1] The ringwork ditch and bank, up to Шаблон:Convert deep, is to the east of the village church.[1] During the first half of the 13th century a stone circular keep and low curtain wall was built at the castle, along with one or two other stone buildings within the ringwork.[1] A medieval deer park may have been attached to the castle.[1]
Estimates of the date of the original building range from the late 11th century to the early 13th century.[2]
The castle site was excavated by archaeologist Nigel Pounds in 1938, and today is a scheduled monument.
