DescriptionUpper House is an H-plan hall house, of lordship status, sited adjacent to the castle bank. It dates from about 1400 and is an aisled hall with a cross passage at the lower end and a solar cross wing at the upper end. A post and panel partition was added in the seventeenth century with a floor over the hall; a storied porch and timber stair in a turret were also added. The lower cross-wing is possibly slightly later. In the late eighteenth century wing is a painted 'trophy' and also a long flintlock gun, hanging on two hooks; a belt looped over the muzzle has an oval buckle. Below, hanging on a central hook, is a hunting-horn.
