Caverswall Castle

Amongst it’s delightful features are 3 Converted turrets: Thomas Moore, Matthew Craddock, Sister Josephine. It also has a Converted gatehouse plus an Old dungeon.
All in there are 11 suites all of which have spacious double bedrooms and decadent en suite bath/shower rooms.
The castle has a long history as you would expect and was built on the site of an Anglo-Saxon Manor, on the spot where two tributaries of the River Blythe meet. Ernulf de Hesing, as Saxon-holder, who was perhaps driven from the estate during the Conquest. From him it passed to Sir William
de Caverswall who incorporated the tributaries to form his moat when he received a “licence to Crenellate” his Saxon Manor house in 1275
The Castle fell into decay until 1615 when Matthew Cradock, Mayor of Stafford and a wealthy merchant, bought and rebuilt it as a Jacobean mansion in about 1625
It is stunning inside with panelling and ceilings!
It isn’t actually the whole castle though as a small part was sold off some years ago.

The pictures are all fascinating. It’s a beautiful building with some really interesting things inside! The Stag heads are probably what you’d expect in a big house like this. The grounds are so pretty and it has a tennis court!
Peel towers (also spelt pele) are small fortified keeps or tower houses, built along the English and Scottish borders in the Scottish Marches and North of England, intended as watch towers where signal fires could be lit by the garrison to warn of approaching danger. By an Act of Parliament in 1455, each of these towers was required to have an iron basket on its summit and a smoke or fire signal, for day or night use, ready at hand. From the wiki page
