Auckland Castle Deer House

As we walked through the deer park of the castle (Bishops Palace) we climb a hill to discover the old Deer House. Described as a rare and well preserved example of Gothic Revival architecture built around 1760. In those days numerous deer roamed the grounds and this building provided a feeding place and shelter for the deer and rooms for the Bishops guest to rest and enjoy a picnic.

Have a perfect day.
