Gresham Castle, Medieval fortified manor house in Gresham, England.

The rectangular castle structure features round towers measuring 35 feet in diameter and sits on a central platform of 2378 square meters.

William Paston purchased Gresham Castle in 1427, leading to conflicts with Lord Moleyns who seized the property with a force of thousand men.

The castle remains represent the architectural evolution of defensive structures in medieval Norfolk, reflecting the period's building techniques and social dynamics.

Access to the castle site requires permission as it stands on private agricultural land, with a water-filled moat surrounding the perimeter.

Modern LIDAR scanning technology reveals the exact layout of wall structures beneath current vegetation, enabling precise historical reconstruction models.
