Deddington Castle was a medieval fortification in the village of Deddington Oxfordshire. It was built on a wealthy former Anglo-Saxon estate by Bishop Odo of Bayeux following the Norman conquest of England in 1066. Odo constructed a large castle with two earthwork baileys and a central motte intending that the castle administer his property in the region and provide a substantial military base in the event of an Anglo-Saxon revolt.
