Barnard Castle: Castle 
Description
The ruins of this medieval castle - originally built by the Balliol family starting at the end of the 11th century, at one time it was a favourite castle of King Richard III. The castle eventually passed to the Neville family and they decided to concentrate on their main property at Raby Castle, about 7 miles away, so the castle was abandoned and used as a source of stone for Raby. Today most of the curtain wall and parts of some of the towers still survive, with a large amount of land included within the curtain walls.
