Although Kirby Hall's finest state rooms survive impressively complete, much of this vast mansion is now a dramatic roofless shell with plenty of intriguing details to explore. Begun in 1570, Kirby’s inner courtyard displays Classical-style features never previously seen in English mansions. Sir Christopher Hatton the Fourth added the great gardens (described as ‘the finest garden in England’) in the late 17th century. They have been recreated as they may have appeared in the 1690s.

Standing proud above the Welland Valley, Rockingham Castle is a grand, 1,000-year-old-fortress. Between the 11th and 14th centuries, it was a Royal castle, favoured thanks to the deer and boar hunting found in the nearby Rockingham Forest. It passed to the Watson family in the late 15th century, who it has remained with ever since. This makes it one of the most continuously occupied homes in England. Visits to the castle and its gardens are ticketed.

"A tranquil Tudor manor house set in rare terraced gardens, with the 'antient' Dryden family at its heart Built by the Drydens using the remains of a medieval priory, the house and gardens have survived largely unaltered since 1710 and are presented as they were during the Victorian era. The warm, welcoming house features grand rooms, stunning tapestries and Jacobean plasterwork, contrasting with the domestic detail of the servants' quarters. Stroll in the historic parkland and catch glimpses of early medieval landscapes, while a wander through the priory church reveals the story of the canons of Canons Ashby."

Nestled behind the main shopping street in Towcester is this unassuming mound of historic earth. Now turned into a small park area with a spiral path to the top you can get views over the rooftops of the town centre. Bury Mount and Water Meadows park (just a couple of minutes North East by bike), won the restoration category at the Museums and Heritage Awards 2011 beating Westminister Abbey which came second. The mount is the restored remains of what is thought to be a 12th century motte and bailey fortification.

This is another of the "Folleys" around Moulton. The house was built to look like a Castle and the nearby barn like a Church gable.
