Halton Castle
Halton Castle
A tower was first recorded here in 1382. The present structure is of four storeys, and has been restored as a private residence. There are a number of carved Roman stones set into the tower walls, and much of the stone for the building probably came from the nearby Roman fort at Chesters.
