Not sure on much of the history of this place, I do know that once upon a time Lady Jane Grey lived here. You can access the inside on specific days of the year.

Bradgate House was a Tudor mansion built in the early 1500s, and was lived in by the Grey family - including Lady Jane Grey - for 220 years. The house was abandoned in the 1730s, and by 1790, it was declared a ruin.
