Stone Castle
Stone Castle is a small flint-faced castellated house set close to a sweeping lawn and circular drive in a suburban or park setting. The exterior displays crenellated parapets, a projecting gabled entrance porch with a tall arched window, and at least one curved tower; walls are partly covered in ivy. The building appears maintained and intact in the present day.

As it stood in 1890
What Stone Castle looked like in its prime.
Low, flint-faced castellated house with a gently curved tower at the left, continuous crenellated parapet along the roofline, and a projecting gabled stone entrance porch with a tall pointed-arch window beside a recessed doorway. Wall surfaces are dark flint with lighter stone dressings around openings; ivy climbs large sections of the façades. The house sits directly beside a sweeping circular asphalt drive with a closely-mown lawn in the foreground and suburban buildings beyond.
Its story
The story of Stone Castle.
Stone Castle, near Western Quarry in Kent, was built between 1135 and 1140 on the site where William the Conqueror signed a treaty with the men of Kent in 1067. It was owned by the Wiltshire family, whose members included Bridget Wingfield, a close friend of Anne Boleyn — correspondence of Wingfield's was used to help condemn the queen for adultery.
In 1527 the castle received Thomas Wolsey, Thomas More and the Earl of Derby. The small flint-faced, castellated house — crenellated parapets, a projecting gabled entrance porch with a tall arched window, at least one curved tower — is now owned by Blue Circle, which leased the land to Land Securities in 2000.
