Middleton Mount is the remains of a Norman motte-and-bailey castle in Middleton, Norfolk. The motte is visible as a steep-sided, sub-circular mound, approximately 150ft in diameter and 33ft high. It is encircled by a ditch about 35ft wide which remains open to a depth of about 8ft. At the top of the mound is a platform on which would have stood a timber tower.
