About this artwork
The Seymour’s ruined Elizabethan mansion lies within the remains of the unfinished 15th Century Pomeroy family castle. Around 1600 the house was extended to create a palatial building to rival Longleat or Audley End. Lack of funds halted the works and by 1700 the castle was abandoned. Now a romantic ruin on the edge of a deeply wooded valley it became an example of a picturesque ruin as a popular tourist destination, and is rumoured to be haunted.
