What is recorded here

Castle Tor is a Grade II registered park or garden in Torbay, built between 1928 and 1934 by Fred Harrild for H Pickersgill. Its limestone terraces hold dragon gargoyles, a portcullis gatehouse and a round tower, all shaped like a playful medieval dream. The gardens are divided in ownership, so their life is private, but the stones still arrange water, light and shadow the way Harrild intended.

The National Heritage List for England records Castle Tor as a registered park or garden at Grade II. 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.

The historic-place record does not grant public access. Check current conditions and ownership before entering land or a building.
