Thirlwall Castle
30 Jan 2001
Sound

If you go down to the castle at night, you're sure of a big surprise.

Thirlwall Castle takes its name from Hadrian's Wall, which supplied some of the stone it was fortified with in the 14th century. Originally the home of the Thirlwall family, it was abandoned by them as a residence in the 18th century and passed through various hands until it was taken over by the Northumberland National Park Authority. Despite the castle falling into disrepair 400 years ago, work continues to save the scheduled monument for generations to come, and for the wildlife which calls it home.
