The castle is currently privately owned, having been bought by Osbert Peake, 1st Viscount Ingleby in the mid-20th century as part of a shooting estate.

The castle was established in the early 12th century at the edge of Castle Bank, a ridge between the villages of Faceby and Swainby, overlooking a small valley through which the road between Thirsk and Stokesley runs.
