Fix this textPALACE AND FORT COMBINED
Fix this text'T'OWERING above the Lincolnshire
Fix this textfenlands, near Woodhall Spa, are the
Fix this textmassive walls of Tattershali Castle, one
Fix this textof the best examples of a fortified dwell-
Fix this texting in Britain. It was built in 1440 by
Fix this textBaron Cromwell, Lord High Treasurer
Fix this textto Henry VI (1422-1461), and replaced
Fix this textan earlier thirteenth-century fortress of
Fix this textwhich the outer moat, some earthworks
Fix this textand foundations still remain.
Fix this textBaron Cwomwell added an outer ward
Fix this textto the old enclosure and transformed the
Fix this textoriginal castle into a palace, the chief
Fix this textfeature of which is the great quadrangular
Fix this texttower, 110 feet high. Its four stories are
Fix this textsurmounted by battlements built of
Fix this textAncaster stone. The walls themselves are
Fix this textbuilt of small red bricks, with patterns in
Fix this textblue-black brick, and are, in places, six-
Fix this textteen feet thick. Nowhere else in Britain
Fix this textcan a finer example of medieval brick-
Fix this textwork be seen to better advantage.
Fix this textEach of the four floors within the castle
Fix this texthas a large central room from which
Fix this textopen out smaller chambers. A particu-
Fix this textlarly noteworthy feature of each of the
Fix this textbig rooms is the possession of elaborate
Fix this textheraldic chimney-pieces, which were ad-
Fix this textmired by an American millionaire in
Fix this text1911, and were only saved from being
Fix this textshipped across the Atlantic by the pat-
Fix this textriotic action of the Marquess Curzon,
Fix this textwho bought the castle and adjacent
Fix this textgrounds and presented it to the nation.
Fix this textThe castle was damaged during the
Fix this textCivil War, and in this century by light-
Fix this textning, but restoration was completed in
Fix this text1914, and this great fortress is now open
Fix this textto the public. The Guard House serves
Fix this textas a museum in which may be seen a
Fix this textwide range of pottery and other objects
Fix this textof interest which have been found in the
Fix this textvicinity of Tattershali Castle,
