Summary
Description The gatehouse, Northborough Hall - geograph.org.uk - 672519.jpg |
English:
The gatehouse, Northborough Hall. Also known as Northborough Castle, the Hall is in fact a fortified medieval manor house dating from 1329-30. The main residence is in fact very un-castle-like, but the site was originally moated and the defensive capabilities of the very fine gatehouse are clear in this picture. Although improvements were made in later centuries, the essential medieval buildings are unchanged.
