| dbo:abstract | Haughton Castle ist ein Landhaus nördlich des Dorfes Humshaugh am Westufer des North Tyne. Es liegt etwa 10 km nördlich von Hexham in der englischen Grafschaft Northumberland. Das Haus entstand ursprünglich im 13. Jahrhundert als Wohnturm und wurde dann im 14. Jahrhundert erweitert und befestigt. Damals gehörte das Haus Gerald Widdrington und, auch wenn es Anfang des 14. Jahrhunderts immer noch den Widdringtons gehörte, lebten die Swinburns darin. Bis zum 16. Jahrhundert verfiel das Haus und wurde auch von Border Reivers angegriffen. Ein Bericht von 1541 erwähnt, dass die Dächer und Böden „verfallen und verschwunden“ seien. Die Familie Smith kaufte das Anwesen um 1640, aber 1715 bezeichnet ein weiterer Bericht das Haus immer noch als Ruine. Von 1816 bis 1845 ließen die Smiths wesentliche Umbauten ausführen, letztlich durch den Architekten John Dobson, um die Ruine in ein großes Landhaus zu verwandeln. Die Familie Crawshaw kam 1862 in den Besitz des Hauses und ließ 1876 durch Anthony Salvin einen Westflügel anbauen. 1888 kaufte die Familie Cruddas das Anwesen. Ein Teil des Landhauses diente im Zweiten Weltkrieg als Krankenhaus. Was einst ein länglicher Wohnturm war, gehört heute zu den besterhaltenen traditionellen Häusern im Norden Englands. Haughton Castle wurde von English Heritage als historisches Bauwerk I. Grades gelistet und wird zurzeit von der Eignerfamilie Braithwaite bewohnt.

It is around 5+1⁄2 miles (8.9 km) north of the market town of Hexham, Northumberland. It was built originally in the 13th century as a tower house and enlarged and fortified in the 14th century. At this time the castle was owned by Gerald Widdrington and, although the Widdringtons still owned it in the early 14th century, the Swinburns were living there. By the 16th century, the castle fell into ruin and disrepair, and it was attacked by Border reivers. A survey of 1541 reported the roof and floors to be "decayed and gone". The property was acquired by the Smith family in about 1640, but in 1715 a further survey stated the building to be ruinous. Significant alterations were carried out for the Smiths between 1816 and 1845, latterly by architect John Dobson to convert the ruin into a substantial mansion. The Crawshaw family came into possession in 1862, and a west wing was added for them by Anthony Salvin in 1876. Part of the castle served as a hospital during the Second World War. It is now an oblong tower house and one of the best-preserved hall houses in the north of England. In 1888 it was acquired by the Cruddas family, and it is currently owned by the Braithwaite family. Some commentators suggest it is the location for the traditional song "Waters of Tyne". (en) Haughton Castle är ett slott i Storbritannien.
