It is a Scheduled Ancient Monument and a Grade I listed building.[1] HistoryThe Heron family acquired the Manor of Chipchase by the marriage of Walter Heron to the Chipchase heiress. He built a massive four-storey battlemented tower house on the site of an earlier house in the mid-14th century.[2][3] A survey in 1541 described a "fare tower" with a "manor of stone joined thereto" owned by John Heron.[4] In 1621, Cuthbert Heron (High Sheriff of Northumberland in 1625) demolished the house and built a fine Jacobean mansion, leaving the tower standing and attached to the new house.[3] His first son George was killed at the Battle of Marston Moor in 1644 in the service of Charles I. His second son Cuthbert was created a Baronet by Charles II (see Heron Baronets), but he experienced financial problems which eventually led to the sale of the estate by the Herons early in the 18th century. John Reed, a Newcastle upon Tyne banker, bought the estate in 1734 and carried out major alterations to the castle, including a classical façade to the old tower. The failure of Reed's family bank caused his descendants to sell the estate to the Greys of Backworth in 1821 to defray debts. TodayThe castle is privately owned. It is associated with Paul Torday, the author of the novel Salmon Fishing in the Yemen, which was made into a popular film. He lived there with his second wife Penelope (née Taylor), who inherited the estate, and reportedly did much to help manage it.[5] The grounds are open to the public but the Castle is open to the public only in June.[6] References1. ^English Heritage: Images of England Detailed Architectural description 2. ^Keys to the Past {{webarchive|url=https://web.archive.org/web/20070928003329/http://www.keystothepast.info/durhamcc/K2P.nsf/K2PDetail?readform&PRN=N7768 |date=2007-09-28 }} 3. ^1 Structures of the North East {{webarchive|url=https://web.archive.org/web/20051102094519/http://sine.ncl.ac.uk/view_structure_information.asp?struct_id=64 |date=2005-11-02 }} 4. ^The Gatehouse Gazetteer, Chipchase Castle{{dead link|date=August 2017 |bot=InternetArchiveBot |fix-attempted=yes }} 5. ^{{Cite news|url=https://www.theguardian.com/books/2013/dec/19/paul-torday-dies-67|title=Paul Torday obituary|last=Langdon|first=Julia|date=2013-12-19|newspaper=The Guardian|language=en-GB|issn=0261-3077|access-date=2016-03-27}} 6. ^{{cite web|url=http://www.chipchasecastle.com|title=Chipchase Castle - Weddings - Fishing - Shooting - England, Northumberland|work=chipchasecastle.com|accessdate=7 August 2015}} External links
