The Grade II-listed Witton Castle has seen many changes in its much-modified existence. Built in the 15th-century, today it is at the heart of the Witton Castle Country Park, a vast estate that houses a holiday park, lakes, mature woodland and nature reserves. There are a number of good trails around the site and the village of Witton-le-Wear is just a short walk away too.
