Mapperley Castle
replied on: 9/21/2006 11:45:28 PM

My understanding (and I know little of the subject) is that the mansion at Park Hall is different to the castle. The castle was closer to the the current Mapperley Lane - the site of the castle was actually bisected by the railway line in the late 1800's. It is at the south end of Mapperley Park Wood. It's moat is quite clearly shown on the 1900 OS Map.

I've been to Horsley Castle today as well!
