Inscription. This house, formerly occupied by tenants of the Barons of Kendal, comprises a 14th century single storey hall with cross wings, embellished as a gentleman's residence in the 16th century, extended at the rear in the 17th/18th centuries and recently renovated. Its name appears to be a corruption of Castle Dowery, a dower house for widows of the Barony.

Erected by Kendal Civic Society.
