Aydon Castle Description
Overlooking the steep valley of the Cor Burn, Aydon Castle is one of the finest examples in England of a 13th-century manor house.
It was originally built as an undefended house, during a time of unusual peace in the Borders. When peace ended, the house had to be fortified at once but even so, it was pillaged and burnt by the Scots in 1315, seized by English rebels two years later, and underwent frequent repairs and modifications.
