History
Information
Website: Auckland Castle Trust

Auckland Castle, also known as Auckland Palace and locally as the Bishop's Castle or Bishop's Palace, is located in Bishop Auckland, its neighbouring town in County Durham. It has been a palace of the Bishops of Durham for 800 years.

The castle is owned by a trust for the Church of England for the service of the Diocese of Durham[1]

Auckland Castle was originally established as a hunting lodge.[2] The principal seat of the Bishops of Durham from 1832, it was transferred in July 2012 to the Auckland Castle Trust, a charitable foundation to restore both the castle and grounds and also establish permanent exhibitions on the history of Christianity in Britain and specifically Durham and Northumberland.[3]

In appearance more like a Gothic stately home than a mediæval fortification, Auckland Castle remains a working episcopal palace being the residence and official headquarters of the Bishop of Durham and the administrative offices of the Durham Diocesan Board of Finance.[4]

The Long Dining Room

The Long Dining Room[5] houses 12 of the 13 celebrated 17th-century paintings, by Francisco de Zurbarán, of Jacob and his twelve sons.[6] These paintings have hung for 250 years in this room specifically designed and constructed for them. In 2001 the Church Commissioners voted to sell the works of art, then estimated at £20 million in value, but relented after a review in 2010.[7][8]

On 31 March 2011 the Church Commissioners announced that plans to sell off the paintings were shelved following a donation of £15 million from investment manager Jonathan Garnier Ruffer,[9][10] placing the paintings, along with the castle, under the Auckland Castle Trust.[11]

The Scotland Wing

The Scotland Wing is a long, narrow, three storey building leaning against the castle walls and which stands behind the main ceremonial rooms. Its origins and history are little known. Some early records show the Scotland Wing as being built in 1388 by Bishop Skirlaw but date it to around the 16th century, when Bishop Tunstall rebuilt it as a garden gallery.

Even the origin of the name 'Scotland Wing' is unknown; some suggest it was used to house Scottish reivers and raiders, which idea was taken up in The Legend of Scotland, a ghost story in the form of a poem which Lewis Carroll wrote for the daughters of Bishop Longley, who lived at Auckland Castle in the 1850s.

In the 1700s the Scotland Wing became a granaryand its third storey was added. In the Twentieth Century it was converted into offices. There are plans to convert it for an exhibition on the history of Auckland Castle.[12]

The Estate and buildings

The castle is surrounded by 800 acres of parkland, which was originally used by the bishops and their entourages for hunting and is today open to the public.[13]

The Castle and its grounds contain seven Grade I listed buildings:

The Deer House in Auckland Castle Park which was built in 1760, a large castellated-stone building to shelter the deer, which nowadays has a viewing room for visitors.

History

In around 1183, Bishop Hugh Pudsey established a manor house on the site.[21][22] Bishop Beck, who relocated his main residence from Durham Castle to Auckland due to its proximity to his hunting estate, later converted the manor house into a castle.

After the abolition of the episcopacy by Parliament in 1646 at the end of the First English Civil War, Auckland Castle was sold to Sir Arthur Hazelrigg, who demolished much of the mediæval building, including the original two-storey chapel, and built a mansion.[23][24][25] After the Restoration of the Monarchy, the office of bishop returned, and the new Bishop of Durham, John Cosin, in turn demolished Hazelrigg's mansion and rebuilt the castle converting the banqueting hall into the chapel that stands today.[23][26]

In 1756 Bishop Richard Trevor bought a set of paintings of Jacob and his 12 sons painted by Francisco de Zurbarán which still hang in the Long Dining Room. It is possible that the seventeenth century paintings were intended for South America. However they never reached their supposed destination, eventually coming into the possession of James Mendez[27] who sold twelve of the thirteen to Dr Trevor for £125 in 1756.

Bishop Trevor was unable to secure the 13th portrait, Benjamin which was sold separately to the Duke of Ancaster and hangs in Grimsthorpe Castle in Lincolnshire. Bishop Trevor commissioned Arthur Pond to produce a copy painting of "Benjamin". The copy, together with the 12 originals, hang in the castle's Long Dining Room, which Bishop Trevor had redesigned especially to take the pictures.[28][29]

Shute Barrington, Bishop of Durham from 1791 to 1826, employed the eminent architect James Wyatt to match the disparate architecture of the palace in the late 18th century, including its Throne Room and Garden Screen. In 1832 William van Mildert, the last prince-bishop, gave over Durham Castle to found the University of Durham, and Auckland Castle became the sole episcopal seat of the See of Durham.
