In 1870, the Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-Day Saints (the Mormons) began construction of the fortified ranch house at Pipe Spring, Arizona. Anson Perry Winsor was appointed superintendent of the ranch and attended to the construction of the fort that would bear his name. Winsor castle, constructed directly over Pipe Spring, consisted of a pair of two-story stone houses with connecting walls forming a courtyard between them. The ranch house/fort was designed as both headquarters for a tithing cattle ranch and as protection from attacks.

Published in the park's 2-color unigrid brochure illustration consists of two parts: base illustration on paper of the exterior and courtyard of the structure and an interior schematic overlay on frosted Mylar showing the rooms, trusses, stairways, and fireplaces registered to the fort diagram.; Abbr=PUB
