Helping Manage Fire Safety at Sheffield Manor Castle

Our work this week included helping out our partner, the community interest company Green Estates, who manage the Sheffield Manor site and needed to renew their license for the Turret House as a marriage venue.
This lodge was built in the 1500’s by the Earl of Shrewsbury in the then Deer Park. Constructed as a hunting lodge come observation tower it had far-ranging views over the surrounding countryside.
Sheffield Manor castle is also famous for holding Mary Queen of Scots prisoner as well as Cardinal Wolsey. Today the Turret house is the only building left fully intact on the manor house site and is well worth a visit on one of the open days.
