Lord's Castle is a historic house at 211 Hammond Street in Waltham, Massachusetts.

Rufus Lord built the home in 1886 on property purchased from Oel Farnsworth. Lord, who owned a prominent construction business in Waltham, was known for his work on the Company F State Armory at Sharon and Curtis Streets.[2]

The {{frac|2|1|2}}-story masonry house was built as a private residence inspired by Norman castles. Its most prominent feature is a large three-story circular tower with extensive corbelling and crenellations, details that are repeated on the main block of the house. It reportedly took Lord ten years to complete.[3]

The house was listed on the National Register of Historic Places in 1989.[1]
