Penrith Castle was begun at the end of the 14th century by Ralph Neville, who played a key role in defending this area against the Scots. It was later transformed into a luxurious residence by Richard, Duke of Gloucester, who became Richard III. Surviving to their full height, the castle walls stand in a public park.

Penrith Castle (now in ruins) is today managed by English Heritage and entrance is free. Penrith Castle was begun at the end of the 14th century by Ralph Neville, who played a key role in defending this area against the Scots. It was later transformed into a luxurious residence by Richard, Duke of Gloucester, who became Richard III. It provides evidence of the raids of the Border Reivers , for which this area is famous and dated between the late 13th to early 17th centuries. It can, if wished, be combined with a shopping trip to Penrith and a visit to the Penrith and Eden Museum.
