Background

History

It is not known when the castle was built or who designed it. The design of the sash-windows and hoodmoulds suggest a design of around 1830-1840, although an archway had the date 1885 emblazoned across it. Henry de Burgh-Lawson (1817–1892) owned it in the 1870s. Mr Coatsworth, of Darlington, occupied it after 1892. In 1900, the castle was bought by Miss Barningham (1860–1915), daughter of a Darlington Ironmaster, William Barningham. There is a mention in an 1889 directory. After her death, it was unoccupied and the furniture was sold in 1928. The castle was requisitioned by the British Army during the Second World War (1939–45). During that time, it held German and Italian prisoners of war.…
