EspañolCORBY CASTLE
'Corby Castle' is an ancestral home of the Howard family situated on the southern edge of the village of Great Corby in northern Cumbria, United Kingdom.
It was originally built in the 13th [1] century as a red sandstone tower house by the Salkeld Family, who also owned the nearby Salkeld Hall of similar age. [2]
It was sold in 1611 to Lord William Howard, the third son of the fourth Duke of Norfolk, who added a 2 storeyed L-shaped house onto the peel tower. [3]
The present facade was built for Henry Howard by Peter Nicholson between April 1812 and Sepetmber 1817. [4]. Henry Howard had inherited the estate from Sir Francis Howard, Lord William Howard's second son.
Corby Castle was sold[5] by Sir John Howard-Lawson Bt.[6] and Lady Howard-Lawson in 1994 to Northern Irish businessman Edward Haughey. The principal contents of the Castle were sold in 1994 through Phillips of Scotland.[7]
