Inkberrow Castle was situated in the village of Inkberrow in Worcestershire, some 10 km south of Redditch (grid reference SP017572).
It was a castle built between 1154 and 1216 which was destroyed (slighted) in 1233. A moat remains which may be that of the castle or of a later manor house built on or near the site of the castle. Earthworks are also present.
There is a moated site in Inkberrow that is thought to be the castle mentioned in medieval records. It was designated a scheduled monument in 1970.
