Codnor Castle, Medieval castle in Aldercar and Langley Mill, England
The stone ruins of Codnor Castle stand on elevated ground with remains of defensive walls and structural elements visible across the site point.
Construction phases from the late medieval period through the 16th century transformed the castle from a military fortification into a noble residence.
The castle grounds contain archaeological evidence of medieval life, providing insights into the daily activities of nobles and servants during that period.
Access to the castle site requires advance planning, and visitors should wear appropriate footwear due to the uneven terrain and exposed location.
Stone from the original castle was reused to construct Castle Farm in the 1530s, creating a direct material connection between medieval and Tudor periods.
