Brinklow Castle
📍 Warwickshire, England
About
Brinklow Castle, known locally as the Tump, is a medieval castle in the village of Brinklow in the county of Warwickshire between Coventry and Rugby.
The site may have originated as a pre-Roman burial mound, which the Romans diverted their Fosse Way road around. After the Norman Conquest, it was developed into one of the largest motte-and-bailey castles in the country. Given to Earl Alberic, then held by the Earl of Mellent, and later by Nigel de Albany. Its importance as a castle ceased at an early period, but the impressive earthworks survive as a Scheduled Monument.
