Grantham - Belvoir Castle

Belvoir Castle (7mi/11km west of Grantham) is the imposing seat of the Duke of Rutland. It dates back to Norman times when Robert de Todeni built a castle here. Destroyed in the Civil Wars of the 15th and 17th centuries and by a devastating fire in 1806, it was rebuilt by James Wyatt in 1808-1816. The castle contains an outstanding collection of pictures including works by Rembrandt, Rubens, Holbein, Poussin and Reynolds, furniture, tapestries and Mortlake wall hangings.
