Chillingham Castle is a medieval castle in the village of Chillingham in the northern part of Northumberland, England. It was the seat of the Grey and Bennett (later Earls of Tankerville) families from the 15th century until the 1980s, when it became the home of Sir Edward Humphry Tyrrell Wakefield, 2nd Baronet, who is married to a member of the original Grey family.
A large enclosed park in the castle grounds is home to the Chillingham cattle, a rare breed, consisting of about 130 head of white cattle.[1]
The castle is a Grade I listed building.[2]
In addition to the castle itself, a number of structures on the grounds of the castle are listed Grade II on the National Heritage List for England. These include the West Lodge and gateway,[3] the garden wall to the west,[4] the gateway and garden wall to the north,[5] the gateway and garden wall to the south east,[6] and the garden wall to the west.[7]
A pair of urns in the Italian Garden are also listed Grade II.[8]
