Lydford Castle is a medieval castle in the town of Lydford Devon England. The first castle in Lydford sometimes termed the Norman fort was a small ringwork built in a corner of the Anglo-Saxon fortified burh in the years after the Norman conquest of England. It was intended to help control Devon following the widespread revolt against Norman rule in 1068. The Norman fort was abandoned by the middle of the 12th century.
