This magnificent baronial residence is situated on the east side of anextensive park, and occupies a fine position on a rising ground, with arocky foundation, and is surrounded by an embrasured wall and parapet,(mclosing two acres of land. The out^^■ard area of this nol)le castle hasbut one entrance, on the south side, Ijy a gateway, defended by two squaretowers, and flanked by a i)ara])et with tui-rets. The inner area has twoentrances, one modern, o])ciied by the late Earl of Darlington, the otherancient, being the original grand entrance to the castle. This noble pile isindebted for its splendour principally to John de Neville, Earl of West-moreland, who, in 1379, obtained a licence to make a castle of his manor ofRaby, and to embattle and crenellate its towers; some parts, however, areof infinitely more ancient date, while alterations have been effected atdifferent epochs by its subsequent possessors.
