Description
The remains of Lea Castle are located adjacent to Lower Lea Farmhouse to the north. This structure dates from around the 14th century and is built from coursed limestone rubble with ashlar dressings. The remains likely belong to a rectangular tower measuring approximately 5 by 14 metres, with walls still standing to the south, east, and west. There is a blocked pointed archway to the north and probable remnants of a corbelled stack to the south. This site was formerly a castle owned by the Bishops of Hereford.
