Castle Hill, Sowerby
Prepare to be underwhelmed if visiting what is shown on some maps as "Sowerby Castle". The significance of what is now no more than a low circular mound in a cattle field - to the right of and beyond the wall end in this photo - lies rather in its archaeological interest. The listing for this scheduled monument (entry 1016946) describes the site as "A rare surviving example of this type of monument in West Yorkshire. The site retains important archaeological and environmental deposits particularly in the matrix of the castle mound, in the fill of the ditches and on the old land surface buried beneath the mound." The castle that was built on the motte belonged to the Earls of Warren, and dates from some time before 1309. Unusually, this motte had no bailey.
