Built in 1067, Rockingham Castle was William The Conqueror’s royal stronghold. Over 900 years it evolved into a Tudor home and later a family residence, demonstrating the adaptive reuse of historical buildings. The castle is rich in literary and artistic history, including connections to Charles Dickens and various renovations reflecting different architectural styles and periods, from Georgian to Victorian influences.
