There is a moated site on the West Hallam side of the old Mapperley Branch line (off Mapperley Lane) next to Mapperley Wood shown on the 1900 O.S. is this where the Castle stood?
There is quite an interesting piece in White's 1857 Directory, page 289,Kirk Hallam Parish. It also mentions a moated site at this location,a Mansion House but no Castle.
