Clifford Castle is a Norman motte and bailey on the River Wye. It was built in 1070 but was reinforced at points throughout the late 11th and early 12th centuries. The castle fell into disrepair during the 15th century and was systematically demolished for building stone.

However, there are still considerable ruins to observe today. The castle is open for 28 days per year, listed on the castle's website with at least one month's notice.
