- Title: Hazlewood Castle
Note: Hazlewood Castle is a country residence, now a hotel, in North Yorkshire, England, by the A1 and A64 between Aberford and Tadcaster. It is one of the oldest fortified houses to survive in the whole of Yorkshire.[1]
The site overlooked the battlefield for the Battle of Towton in 1461, and during the persecution of Catholics through the reign of Henry VIII provided refuge for Catholic priests.
The castle was built towards the end of the 13th century and was transformed into a mansion in the mid 18th century.[2]
The first records of the house are to be found in the Domesday Book, described as being owned and occupied by Sir Mauger the Vavasour (a vavasour is a type of feudal liegeman). Hazlewood was then inhabited by descendants of the Vavasours for over 900 years.[3] During the Second Barons' War (1264–1267) the chapel was burnt down by a rival branch of the Vavasour family.[citation needed] It was rebuilt in 1283 by Sir William Vavasour and in 1290 fortified and crenellated.[citation needed]
In 1217 Robert Vavasour (my 25th GGF) was Sheriff of York and his statue was placed above the door of York Minster in recognition of the fact that he gave stone from his Tadcaster quarry to maintain the cathedral.
