The first castles were built in England in 1066. This was after the Norman conquest, when William the Conqueror introduced them to the country.
This depends on what type of castle your referring to. In the Norman times, there were two different types of castles built. There were Motte and Bailey castles and Stone keep castles (Stone castles). The Motte and Bailey castles were made out of wood and the Stone keep castles were made out of stone (obviously).
The first castles were in France, in the motte-and-bailey style and entirely of earth and timber. They were built by the French to ward off Viking incursions. The earliest ones date to shortly before 1000. The earliest castles in England were built by Norman military advisers to King Edward the Confessor in 1051 and 1052, some 14 years before the Norman conquest. The Normans, who were Viking settlers in France, learned castle-building from the French.
