Summary

[edit]
Description

On Castle Road in Kidderminster. It goes over the River Stour, and I found a towpath entrance to the Staffordshire and Worcestershire Canal down here.


Caldwall Tower


Grade II* listed building.

   CASTLE ROAD
   1.
   5250 (south side)
   Caldwall Hall
   SO 8376 1/9 20.10.52
   II*


   2.
   Late C15 or early C16. Octagonal tower of 2 storeys with cellarage. Local
   sandstone, with moulded cornices and embattled parapet. One C18 window to each
   storey, but several original small lights remain in the staircase turret. The
   lower ground floor room has 16 radial ribs, alternately single chamfered and
   single hollow chamfered. Apparently a fragment of a small castle or fortified
   manor house, occupied in the C17 by Sir Ralph Clare, 1st High Steward of Kidderminster.
