Dodleston Castle
Dodleston Castle in Cheshire was founded in the Middle Ages as a ringwork castle before being developed into a motte-and-bailey.[1] The site was protected as a scheduled monument in 1952.[2] The earthworks were surveyed in 1964 and 1986, with University College Chester carrying out the most detailed survey in 1995.[3]
