Somerton Castle

Travel Information and nearby accommodation

The ruins of Somerton Castle stand 2 miles from Boothby Graffoe, south of Lincoln. The remains of two towers still stand, surrounded by a moat. One of the towers has been incorporated into an Elizabethan farmhouse. Somerton Castle's finest hour came in 1360, when King John of France, then a captive of Edward III, stayed here.
