Hornby Castle, Medieval castle in Hornby-with-Farleton, England.
The castle stands on elevated ground overlooking the River Wenning, featuring a polygonal tower and sandstone rubble construction with slate roofs.
The base of the tower dates from the 13th century when Margaret de Neville owned the property, while the upper section was added in the 16th century.
The castle opens its gardens during specific events, including the annual Snowdrop Weekend in February and the Garden Weekend in May.
Visitors can purchase tickets for garden events through the official website, with the last entry at 3 PM during opening days.
The architect Pudsey Dawson conducted extensive renovations between 1847 and 1850, preserving historical elements while updating significant portions of the structure.
