Farleigh Hungerford Castle sometimes called Farleigh Castle or Farley Castle is a medieval castle in Farleigh Hungerford Somerset England. The castle was built in two phases: the inner court was constructed between 1377 and 1383 by Sir Thomas Hungerford who made his fortune working as a steward to John of Gaunt. The castle was built to a quadrangular design already slightly old-fashioned on the site of an existing manor house overlooking the River Frome.
