More about this scene
Auckland Castle, also known as Auckland Palace, began as a manor house built in about 1183 by Bishop Pudsey, but it was later converted into a castle by Bishop Anthony Bek in the 14th century. It has been the home of the Bishops of Durham for over 800 years, who in the past were virtually monarchs in their own kingdom. Over hundreds of years, the castle was expanded until in 1832 it became the official residence of the bishop and administrative centre for the diocese.
