Dacre Castle is a moated tower house in the village of Dacre 4 miles (6.4 km) south-west of Penrith Cumbria. It was constructed in the mid-14th century probably by Margaret Multon against the background of the threat of Scottish invasion and raids and was held in the Dacre family until the 17th century.
