Chipchase Castle near Wark
The E-shaped front is Jacobean, dating from 1621, since when the Georgians made it slightly more polite by means of sash windows and symmetry. Behind on the left is a much older tower, dating back to at least 1415. Grade I listed.
The house is privately owned but periodically open to the public.
