About This AttractionSuggest an Edit

Bring your little knights and princesses here to explore the rambling castle ruins high above the River Tees. The castle has a rich history and was passed into the hands of Richard III. Plenty for families to discover, climb, conquer and explore from the sensory garden to spotting the Richard's boar emblem carved into the stone.
