Inkberrow Castle was situated in the village of Inkberrow in Worcestershire, England, some 10 km south of Redditch ({{gbmapping|SP017572}}).

It was a castle built between 1154 and 1216 which was destroyed (slighted) in 1233. A moat remains which may be that of the castle or of a later manor house built on or near the site of the castle. Earthworks are also present.

There is a moated site in Inkberrow that is thought to be the castle mentioned in medieval records. It was designated a scheduled monument in 1970.{{National Heritage List for England|num=1018543|desc=Moated site 150m north east of Inkberrow Church}}{{citation |url=https://www.gatehouse-gazetteer.info/English%20sites/3693.html |title=Inkberrow Castle |website=Gatehouse Gazetteer |accessdate=14 October 2024}}
