Husband - Dunstanburgh Castle
- Duke of Lancaster, Earl of Richmond, Titular King.
John and Catherine had all
of their children before they were married, but later the
children were legitimated by the Pope.
At the end of the 14th century, Dunstanburgh Castle passed into the hands
of John of Gaunt. He carried out substantial alterations and closed up
the entrance to the gatehouse. Having converted the original
gatehouse into residential quarters, a second gatehouse was
constructed further along the curtain wall, but almost nothing can be
seen of this today, other than its foundations.
John of Gaunt altered the original castle most obviously in the fact that
he created an inner and outer bailey from the existing enclosure.
Many of the buildings constructed at the time of the remodelling have
long since disappeared, but some fragmentary remains can still be
made out along the curtain wall.
