Kingsley Castle, also known as Castle Cob, a medieval motte near Kingsley, Cheshire, England. It is listed as a Scheduled Ancient Monument.[1] [2] The motte is a cone shaped mound, high; it has a diameter of at the base and tapers to at the top. It is artificial and made from black soil.[1]
Historians used to think that the motte was a large barrow. The stone steps and concrete foundations of a summerhouse not contemporary with the castle are excluded from the protection of the scheduling. There have been limited excavations on the site by antiquarians.[1]
