Conington Castle

Conington Castle was a 16th-century house in Conington, Huntingdonshire, England, built for Sir Robert Cotton. It was demolished in 1955 by the then owners, the Heathcote family.

Sir John Cotton (1662–1702) never lived in the house and it fell into ruin. His grandson, Sir John Cotton (1702–1731), pulled down part of it, and converted the rest into a farmhouse. The politician John Heathcote restored and improved the house. His eldest son, John Moyer Heathcote, made substantial alterations in 1840.
