Description
The ruins of Whorlton Castle Undercrofts consist of two barrel-vaulted undercrofts, likely dating from the 14th century. Constructed from sandstone ashlar, much of the facing has been removed. The vaults are arranged in parallel, with the southern vault being round and the northern vault slightly pointed. The southern vault features a transomed west window, while the right side has a doorway within a transomed partition. There is an entrance projection to the north that has a pointed arch, although it is largely buried in soil. On the west side, a staircase with a Caernarvon-arched doorway rises from a window embrasure. The site is designated as a Scheduled Ancient Monument.
