Hanley Castle, Medieval castle remains in Worcestershire, England.
The castle site contains a dry moat and earthwork mound near the church, surrounded by tall conifers marking its historical location.
King John commissioned the construction of Hanley Castle as a hunting lodge in 1207, which later became a fortified structure with defensive capabilities.
The castle site represents the early Norman influence on English architecture and the development of royal hunting grounds in medieval times.
Located along the B4424 road, five miles southeast of Great Malvern, the castle remains are accessible through local walking paths.
The last standing tower of Hanley Castle was dismantled in 1795 to provide materials for repairing the bridge at Upton upon Severn.
