HistoryThe house was built in the Georgian style for John Wilkinson, an industrialist, in 1778.[2] He was buried in the garden at Castle Head in 1808 before being re-interred in the church in 1828.[3] The house was then acquired by Robert Wright, a solicitor, but lay empty under his ownership for some 30 years, before being bought in 1863 by Edward Mucklow, a Manchester businessman.[4] The house went on to serve as St Mary’s Missionary College, a seminary owned by the Holy Ghost Fathers, from the early 20th century until it closed in the early 1970s.[5] Students who trained there included, briefly, Sir Gerry Robinson, the industrialist.[6] Since the mid 1970s[7] the house has been a Field Studies Centre, from 1997 managed by the Field Studies Council where young men and women aged 17 to 19 learn leadership skills and aim to qualify for a Rotary International Young Leaders award.[8] Studies include map reading, canoeing and fell walking[8] and students stay in one of the 19 dormitory rooms or one of the nine single or twin rooms.[9] In September 2009 a Life Science Centre was also established at the house.[10] References1. ^{{cite web|url=http://www.britishlistedbuildings.co.uk/en-460525-castle-head-grange-over-sands-cumbria/#.VauNBPlViko|title=Castle Head, Grange-over-Sands|accessdate=19 July 2015}} 2. ^{{cite web|url=http://www.thecumbriadirectory.com/People/person_view.php?person=john_wilkinson|title=John Wilkinson|publisher=The Cumbria Directory|accessdate=19 July 2015}} 3. ^{{cite web|title=Townships: Upper Allithwaite, in A History of the County of Lancaster: Volume 8, ed.
