An at-a-glance overview of all our UK events. LOCATION, AREA, BOUNDARIES, LANDFORM, SETTING Lambton Castle stands to the north-east of Chester-le-Street. It is listed in the mid-category of listed building, Grade II*.

[4], In 2012, the castle was the setting of the BBC One drama The Paradise.

Much of the land south of this was developed as a wildlife park in the 1980s, and evidence of this use survives in the landscape. Lambton Castle stands to the north-east of Chester-le-Street. Largely constructed as it is between 1820 and 1828 by John Lambton, first Earl of Durham and one-time Governor General of Canada, it was built around Harraton Hall, a 17th-century mansion.

Taking place on Saturday 5th December…, Unfortunately, due to the ongoing restrictions associated with Covid-19, the Estate have taken the difficult decision to postpone the Lambton…, For information about the wider Lambton Estate please visit. West of the Castle the ground is levelled as a grass terrace, this having been the site of the mid C19 extension, demolished in 1932.

The boundaries of the park are marked by the South Belt and park wall along Chester Road to the south; a belt of woodland known as Picktree Quay to the east of the A1(M) to the west; the North Belt south of Bonemill Lane and Weardale Way to the north; and a broad belt of woodland, Scorer's Wood, dividing the park from the farmland beyond to the east.

It was designed by Joseph and Ignatius Bonomi with later additions by Sydney Smirke in 1862-65.

Few of the parkland features which are indicated on the early editions of the Ordnance Survey survive in either the northern or the southern parts of the park. A 'suspension bridge' (OS 1862) spanning North Drive links Greenhouse Bank with the Castle to the east. These were largely demolished in 1932 and the family moved to the smaller Biddick Hall on the estate. In the mid C19 the kitchen garden area included a flower garden with central pool surrounded by rockwork. There are also entrances from Fatfield Lodge, 600m north-east of the Castle on the lane west from Chartershaught; the buff brick Penshaw Lodge (c 1875, listed grade II under East Lodge) 600m to the east of the Castle; and Houghton Gate Lodge on Chester Road, on the south side of the site. [1], Later additions to the house built by Sydney Smirke in 1862–65, including the great hall, were largely demolished in 1932.

The main entrance from Chester-le-Street is via the early C19 Newbridge gates at the ashlar arched gateway (listed grade II) which stands, with its accompanying lodge, Chester Lodge (listed grade II), on Chester Street to the north of the ancient Chester New Bridge, just back from the public road. To the south of the west drive are open areas known as Ayrie's Bank and Kennel Field, divided from one another by bands of woodland. The Hall was burnt down in 1797 and the new work commenced. Greenhouse Bank formerly contained a flower garden and a conservatory with banqueting room, and also an enclosed area with plant pits and frames, these features being clearly shown on the 1st edition OS map along with others including a summerhouse.
