Cheveley Castle
Cheveley Castle was a medieval fortified manor house near Cheveley, Cambridgeshire, England.
==Details==
Cheveley Castle was built by Sir John Pulteney, a merchant-financier and Lord Mayor of London, around 1341 on the outskirts of the village of Cheveley.〔''( Cheveley: Manors and estate )'', A History of the County of Cambridge and the Isle of Ely: Volume 10: Cheveley, Flendish, Staine and Staploe Hundreds (north-eastern Cambridgeshire) (2002). Accessed: 20 May 2011.〕 The castle was built in an Edwardian style, with four circular towers, gatehouse and a bailey wall, on an elaborate moated site north-west of the village.〔''( Cheveley: Manors and estate )'', A History of the County of Cambridge and the Isle of Ely: Volume 10: Cheveley, Flendish, Staine and Staploe Hundreds (north-eastern Cambridgeshire) (2002). Accessed: 20 May 2011.; ''(Cheveley Castle )'', Gatehouse website, accessed 20 May 2011..〕 It is the only castle of its type to have been built in Cambridgeshire, and was probably intended less for defence than as a high-status hunting lodge - in the 14th century, Cheveley was at the centre of a deer park.〔''(Cheveley Castle )'', Gatehouse website, accessed 20 May 2011.〕 The moat at Cheveley may have inspired other, similar moated designs across the eastern region.〔Creighton, p.195.〕
The castle deteroriated after the early 17th-century, and today only limited masonry remains exist on the site, which is a scheduled monument.〔
