Madeley Old Manor (in the 14th century Madeley Castle), was a medieval fortified manor house in the parish of Madeley, Staffordshire. It is now a ruin, with only fragments of its walls remaining. The remnants have Grade II listed building status and the site is a Scheduled Ancient Monument.[3] The Tudor manor house is illustrated by Michael Burghers as it appeared in 1686 in Plot's History of Staffordshire, together with the formal gardens and a later east frontage.[4] It is situated a short distance to the south of Heighley Castle, a mediaeval seat of the Audley family.
