Foundation

[edit]

Pastscape[1] says the castle was supposed to be parts of the castle of Hugh Bardolf, a justiciar in the reign of Richard I. It does not say he built it, but it does put the date at 11th & 12th century. Richard reigned from 6 July 1189 to 6 April 1199, but Bardolf held the office also under Henry II.

However CastleUK[2] gives the names Ansgot of Burwell or Ralph de la Haye for the builder, but without citation. The same names appear in the Lincolnshire Historic Environment record[3] and in the NHLE which gives 1157 as the latest date of acquisition by Bardolph, and detail besides.[4]

Name

[edit]

Note that all the 4 refs given above talk about Castle Hill, Castle Carlton. [1][2][3][4] Castle Carlton is the name used on the OS map for a modern hamlet at Rookery Farm TF 3980 8368,[5][6] and for the DMV at TF 3965 8353[1]

Nowhere is the castle called called Carlton Castle, though that name was used for the village/parish.[7][8]
