Apparently it was built in 1370 and it was used as a residence by the Middleton family until Christmas Day 1817 when the family moved into the newly built mansion just a short distance away
The original castle was stripped of its furnishings and used as a folly in the extensive grounds and was used to host summer parties.
I think I prefer the original castle to the modern hall, how about you? Leave a comment to let me know your preference...
