Troutbeck Tower, Kendal Castle
Troutbeck Tower, the North West Tower of Kendal Castle, Kendal, Cumbria.
A stone structure, built on a drumlin in the early 13th century by the Sheriff of Lancaster. It was later seized by The Crown and passed to the Parr family in the 1380s by Richard 11. It was once thought that Katherine Parr, the last wife of Henry V111, might have been born here in 1513, but it is likely that the castle was aleady a ruin by then because William Parr's widow remarried in 1486 and left Kendal for Northamptonshire, leaving the castle to fall into ruin.
