The brickmasterpiece: Tattershall Castle's unexpected grandeur

Tattershall Castle sits on Sleaford Road, Lincoln, England. Imported from a stone castle or fortified manor house built by Robert de Tattershall in 1231, it underwent major changes in the 15th century under the ownership of Ralph Cromwell, Treasurer to King Henry VI. The castle, which was a symbol of power and wealth, stands today as one of the three most important brick castles of the mid-15th century in the United Kingdom. About 700,000 bricks were used in its construction. The Great Tower, imported from Lord Cromwell's castle and standing 130 feet high, and the moat are reminders of the mighty structure that once was. The grounds are home to a number of peacocks, and the Parlour is licensed for civil wedding ceremonies for up to 80 guests.
