MyGHOST OF ~Sheriff Hutton Castle~Sheriff Hutton~ North Yorkshire, England.
Sheriff Hutton Castle, which was built in 1382, is a quadrangular castle in the village of Sheriff Hutton comes complete with a hooded ghost and bat cave but it is almost totally ruined.The Casle and attached farmhouse is said to be haunted by a former servant, Nancy now walks around the area wearing a black cloak with the hood pulled up. Seen outside several times by an owner's father, the phantom also scared a house guest to such a degree that they fell down the stairs.
Just four crumbling 100ft stone turrets and the corners of the keep remain and it has no roof or walls.
However, it boasts an impressive list of former royal owners, including Richard III, Henry VIII and Elizabeth I.
The castle began as a grand manor house built by Bertram de Bulmer, the Sheriff of York, in 1140.
It then passed to the aristocratic Neville family through marriage.In 1382, John, Lord Neville, secured a licence to build battlements to crenellate the walls, which formally made it a castle.
It was inherited by Richard Neville, also known as Warwick the Kingmaker, who was at one point the richest and perhaps most powerful man in England.
When Warwick died at the Battle of Barnet in 1471, Edward IV confiscated the castle and gave it to Richard, Duke of Gloucester, who later became Richard III.
In 1484, after Richard was crowned, the castle became one of the two headquarters of his Council of the North.
During the 16th century, Henry VIII's illegitimate son Henry Fitzroy lived at Sheriff Hutton under the care of Cardinal Wolsey.
The building then began to fall into disrepair – one report in 1618 described it as ruinous - but remained crown property until the death of Charles I.
It passed to the aristocratic Ingram family before it was sold for the first time to textile baron Wilfred Wagstaff in 1940.
IN 2008 Its present owners Dr Richard Howarth, 67, and his wife Jenny, 65, descendents of Mr Wagstaff, decided to sell it because it has become too much work. Today the castle is privately owned.It was designated a scheduled ancient monument in the 1950s, and has recently undergone some repairs by English Heritage.
The castle has two chambers, which are still in good condition. There is a dungeon, where livestock shelter in harsh weather, and a hall above which the Howarths use for events
An ancient well in a ravine, which probably supplied the castle, still has excellent water.

From 2002 :Land from Castle Farm has been sold over the years and as Dr Howarth is now retired he rents out the remaining 70 acres. Sadly, despite all its royal connections, we have never found anything valuable in or around the castle. No crowns under the bushes, he said. We did discover a mediaeval key some years ago and we have a benign ghost, Nancy, probably a former lady-in-waiting. Several people have seen her including my father, who was a down-to-earth Yorkshire farmer.

The parish Church is dedicated to St Helen and Holy Cross and was built in the early 12th century. It is a Grade I Listed Building. The chancel was added in the 13th century and there were other rebuilding work carried out in both 14th and 15th centuries.
An alabaster cenotaph with an effigy of a child was long regarded to depict Edward of Middleham, son of Richard III and Anne Neville, but is now thought to be an earlier work and depicts one of the Neville family
