Castle Tump today

Castle Tump was a castle in the village of Dymock in Gloucestershire, England.

The castle was built in either the 11th or more probably the early 12th century as a motte and bailey design.[1] The motte today is 14 m high, with the traces of the bailey to the south-east.[2]

During the Anarchy the castle was given to William de Braose, the son-in-law of the powerful Miles de Gloucester.[3] After the conflict the castle is believed to have probably been destroyed by Henry II as part of a wider programme of castle denigration in Gloucestershire during the 1150s.[4]
