A motte-and-bailey castle once stood here — today it survives as earthworks in North Yorkshire. The Albion Guide maps 21 motte-and-bailey castles in the county; this is one of them. The surrounding countryside is part of the North York Moors National Park.
Sleights Station is 5.1 km away to the south-east. The nearest other motte-and-bailey castle is Old Mulgrave Castle, 0.7 km to the east.
