Langton
Mound is a low flat-topped mound, encased by the remnants of a ditch. Standing by St Andrew's Church, the mound doesn't offer any clues to its past. There was a castle recorded here in the Medieval period but the earthwork platform to the west of the village, is probably its remains. 4 miles south is Acklam
Castle.
Langton Mound is located in the village centre, west of Cordike Lane. 17 miles north-east of York, on the A64.
The site is freely accessible in daylight hours.
Car parking is by the side of the road.
