Grounds of Gilling Castle
Between the photographer and the castle is part of the golf course which extends around 3 sides of the building. Once the home of the Fairfax family, the building is now the prep department for Ampleforth College. The west range of the castle, seen here is mostly 18thC, but other parts are much older.
Gilling Castle, which has been a prep school for Ampleforth College since 1929, is deserving of a photo to illustrate this OS square. See http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gilling_Castle
