Pengersick Castle.
A castle has stood at Pengersick since the Middle Ages and sometime around 1550 it was rebuilt and fortified as a Tudor manor. The tower of this building was four storeys high with the top floors being for domestic use and the ground floors mostly defensive. A grand ‘newel stair’ links the floors and uninvited guests should beware of burning oil or other noxious substances being poured on them from the drop-slot above the main doorway. A project is in place to reconstruct a ‘ Knot garden’ to link the history of Pengersick Castle to a Medieval Herb Garden.
