Castle probably began construction in the late 11th century and was improved in the 13th century by King John and his son Henry III, when it was used as a hunting lodge. Today, the atmospheric ruins comprise three large walls and extensive earthworks. Also worth seeing is the 14th-century cross nearby in the centre of Ludgershall village.
