Moat Hill Motte, Aldingham
The mound and ditch of the motte from the 12th /13th century motte and bailey castle at Aldingham in Cumbria. The site has suffered substantial coastal erosion and only the motte is now clearly visible, although public access is limited. (This photo was taken from a public footpath). The site was abandoned in the 13th century when a new moated castle was built closeby at what is now Moat Farm.. This was the home of the le Fleming family until they moved to Gleaston Castle.
