Mouselow Castle is a medieval earthwork motte and bailey fortress, built on an old Celtic hilltop. The position of the bailey has been quarried away and sadly spoil heaps have confused and damaged the other earthworks that commanded this ridge. Encased by traces of a double rampart and an eastern triple rampart, it was probably the site of an oval Iron Age hillfort, which was adapted during the Roman occupation. In the 18th century there were indications of a building on the summit and several pieces of stone have been identified, maybe mistakenly as a Celtic shrine. Found by the Reverend George Marsden, in the 1850s, the series of obscure carved images may date from the medieval or post medieval period. 16 miles south-east is Peveril Castle.
