SE 555-068 Yorkshire England
Radcliffe Moat is a 13th century medieval fortified manor house, founded by Sir Robert de Eueringham. The large rectangular platform, is encased by the remains of a substantial moat, with one corner lost to the railway line. The successor to Hangthwaite Castle, the site is heavily overgrown and so is best viewed in winter. 8 miles south-west is Mexborough Castle.
Radcliffe Moat is located south-east of Adwick-le-Street, off the Great North Road. 4 miles north of Doncaster, on the A638.
The site is visible from the dismantled railway line.
Car parking is by the side of the road.
