Someries Castle was never a castle, but in fact a regal fortified manor house belonging to Sir John Wenlock. It is thought to be one of the first brick buildings in England as its construction began 1430. However, it was never finished. In the 18th century, the house was mostly demolished so only the remains can be seen today. You may also still have the chance to meet Sir John Wenlock – locals believe his ghost still haunts the ruined walls.

Although it's called a castle this was a 15th century mansion, with just the gate house and chapel remaining.
Short section of gravelled track from the tarmac road. Free parking, no facilities.

Worth the diversion (and a bit of off-roading) to discover the ruins of a 15th century castle. Just ignore the sounds of the aircraft taking off and landing at Luton Airport!
