MenuPrudhoe Castle, Northumberland
Prudhoe Castle is a ruined mediæval castle in Northumberland. Bult as part of a series of Norman Castles along the River Tyne after the 1066 Norman conquest, Prudhoe was continuously occupied for over nine centuries. It was originally the home of the Umfravilles but was eventually taken over by the famous Percy family who restored it. Prudhoe survived two sieges during the 1170s and was the only Northumberland castle to resist the Scots. It is within the council area of Northumberland.
