Ravensworth Castle
Ravensworth Castle is a historic English castle and later country house complex at Lamesley, Tyne and Wear, long associated with the Liddell family. The site contains medieval towers and curtain walls alongside the early 19th-century Gothic Revival house by John Nash, much of which was later demolished; today the site survives as a ruinous historic monument.

As it stood in 1827
The shape it held in its prime.
A tall, cylindrical stone tower with a crenellated top and a large circular clock face dominates the central axis, set above an arched entrance through a low curtain of sandstone walls. Flanking single-storey wings and fragments of masonry extend left and right, with a broad grassed forecourt and a straight path leading to the gate. Stone colour is warm beige-grey sandstone; rooflines over most ranges are low or absent in the ruin now but the primary tower rises clearly above the court.
