Spofforth Castle was built by Henry de Percy in the early 14th century when he was given a licence to crenellate a manor house on the site, with later alterations made in the 14th and 15th centuries.The hall-tower of the castle is all that remains of the ruins.The eastern wall of the hall was built largely upon rock foundations. The extant 13th century structure consist of a ground floor undercroft, which has a rock face forming its eastern wall due to its elevation.Two staircases remain on the eastern wall, cut into the rock which lead to the lobby area of the hall. There is a two-storey chamber section on the north side of the tower which has a polygonal stair turret to its northwest corner. The upper storey is of 15th century construction, and is probably a restoration.
