Llanilid Castle is a very well-preserved raised ringwork which once protected a timber Norman castle. The ringwork measures about 30 metres wide, and has a counterscarped bank to the west. The interior of the enclosure is about 4 metres higher than the exterior, which, though not precisely a motte, does create a more easily defensible position.
