What is recorded here
The National Heritage List for England records Cresswell tower house as a scheduled monument. The saved point comes from the centre supplied by the official record. Listing does not by itself mean that the public may enter the place.
Cresswell Tower House is a 16th-century fortified residence associated with the powerful Cresswell family of Northumberland. It is remembered as an example of late medieval defensive architecture and as a symbol of local gentry influence in the turbulent border regions of England.
