Beaudesert Castle was in the village of Beaudesert to the east of Henley-in-Arden, Warwickshire (grid reference SP15606613). It is a Scheduled Ancient Monument.[1]
A motte and bailey castle was built following the Norman conquest possibly on the site of an ancient British fort. A stone castle was built, probably in the 13th century. A single stone and earthworks are all that now remain.[2]
The site was investigated by the archaeologists of Time Team in series 9 (2002).[3]
