This is Wressle Castle in the village of Wressle near Howden, East Yorkshire. It belonged to the Percy family who were the Earls of Northumberland. It is now in private hands and not publicly accessible, though it can been from trains on the Hull to Selby railway line and from footpaths in the area.

Well done Davidxander in identifying this castle. Everything fits for Wressle Castle. I have moved the marker to nearer the location of the castle but I only for the sake of accuracy. Once again a great spot Davidxander

Thanks, I had difficulty in getting the marker in the exact spot - think I need more practice at it.
