Kingerby Castle, Medieval fortification site in Market Rasen, England
Kingerby Castle stands at coordinates 53.4214°N and -0.4124°W, with its grounds now occupied by an 1812 Grade II listed manor house.
The original motte and bailey castle burned down in 1216 during the First Barons' War, when King John of England ordered its destruction.
The site transformation from military fortification to residential manor reflects the changing patterns of English architectural and social development through centuries.
Visitors can access the location via country roads from Market Rasen, with the John Street Car Park serving as a starting point for area exploration.
The castle grounds contain earthwork remains of an ecclesiastical enclosure that housed Elsham Priory, adding multiple historical layers to the location.
