Absolutely stunning views from this icon of a venue. Family friendly inn, very well preserved amongst the ruins of Halton Castle. Enjoyed a function here with 30 people, very cosy but still well above expectations. Well done!Marked in respect of the late Brain Lambert ❤️

Popped down today for some food, brought the binoculars with the kids, doors where locked but oddly there were people sat inside having a drink, possibly shut down or on the verge?Either way, no signs up & no one inside bothered to come explain to us or another few couples what was happening!

The Castle is a lovely pub in the grounds of the ruins of the medieval Halton Castle.

You can see pretty much 360 degree around the local areas of Cheshire and countryside from up here, there is some great views in the outdoor seating areas and also some walls from the old settlement are still there to look at and walk around. A great place to relax and find out a little history of Runcorn and Halton.

Closed between 10 November and 17 November apparently ?
Originally with connections to King Alfred's daughter, Athelfreda's, system of fortified burhs in 910, the first castle was built in 1071 and replaced by the present sandstone version in the 13th century. A gatehouse was added in 1737 which was later used as a courthouse.Although presently in disrepair it is a Grade 1 listed building. The courthouse is still standing and is now a popular public house. You can still walk right around the castle remains and access to the inside is arranged on local special occasions

What a great pub with one of the best beer gardens I have ever visited. Not many pubs can say their beer garden is a castle with amazing views .only popped in for a coke and snack on a hot day but was able to sit and enjoy the outdoor space . Amazing ?
