Brougham Hall, Medieval castle and cultural center in Penrith, England.

Brougham Hall features a thirteenth-century gateway, Tudor architecture from 1480, and multiple artisan workshops spread across its grounds.

During World War II, the hall served as headquarters for the 79th Armoured Division, where Churchill ordered development of specialized military equipment.

The castle grounds host theatrical performances, including Shakespeare plays, against the backdrop of its restored medieval architecture.

The hall remains open daily from 11:00 to 16:00 in winter and 10:00 to 17:00 in summer, with free entry and optional donations.

The onsite coffee house provides indoor seating near a wood burner during winter and courtyard tables throughout summer months.
