A motte-and-bailey castle once stood here — today it survives as earthworks in Cumbria. The Albion Guide maps eight motte-and-bailey castles in the county; this is one of them. Other castles nearby include Scaleby Castle and Bastle at Upper Denton. For arrivals by rail, Brampton (Cumbria) Station is 2.2 km to the south-east.
