As it stood in 1322
The shape it held in its prime.
A horizontal stone silhouette of six fortified drum towers linked by a domestic range and curtain wall, built of variegated brown–grey sandstone with crenellated battlements and mullioned windows. The northern front presents projecting rectangular bay windows and an arched twin-towered Norman gatehouse; the roofline is continuous and intact. The castle sits above a steep drop to the Eller Beck with a broad clipped lawn to the north and a central Tudor courtyard within the inner wards.
