Abstract:		 Ennor or Old Town Castle at Old Town, St. Mary's Isles of Scilly, established during the late 12th century, was formerly the military and administrative hub of the Isles of Scilly, though had declined in importance by the reign of Elizabeth I. The castle's remaining stonework is likely to have been dismantled during the early 19th century for local building projects, and all that now remains is the castle mount - now completely obscured by tree growth. The castle is a Scheduled Monument, though given that the majority of the site has been as an unmanaged annexe to a local garden for many years, it has been declared a Monument at Risk by English Heritage. Part of the site has been entered into a HLS agreement. English Heritage and Natural England have requested HE Projects to prepare a Conservation Management Plan for the whole of the Scheduled area. The studies presented in the plan confirm the articular historical importance of Ennor Castle in the administration of the Scillonian archipelago during the medieval to Tudor periods and its archaeological potential, but also its ecological condition and potential and the potential for the site to once again become a significant local landmark. Building on discussions with the groups and individuals with interests in the site, the Plan sets out a range of actions through which this vision could be realised, principally targeted vegetation management and the site's interpretation to visitors to Scilly who are currently unaware of its significance and qualities.
