castle presently lies within the boundaries
of the county of Cleveland, but when erected
it was quite firmly in the North Riding of
Yorkshire, located near Loftus, Brotton and
Skelton. The castle, which was first mentioned
in records c1265, was sited on a steep sided
outcrop and built by a member of the Kilton
family, though by 1278/9 the influential Thweng
family were associated with it. The castle
was an enclosure of two wards surrounded by
a curtain wall. The arms of Thweng pose a
small dilemma as they are the same as those
of Colville of Kirby Sigston and Wheldrake,
ie, or a fess gules, according to Burk's Extinct
Peerage. The Victoria County History however
supports Burk's General Armoury which portrays
them as Gules, nine popinjays or. The County
History shows Sir Robert Lumley (who married
Lucia Thweng and took their arms) as or, a
fess gules between three popinjays vert which
if correct indicates that Thweng was indeed
the former.

According
to Leland : Mount Ferrant castle stood two
miles from Malton in the lordship and parish
of Birdsall. It is now clearly defaced and
bushed now grow where it stood. This castle
some time belonged to the Lord Mauley of which
stock there were eight in succession, all
by the name of Peter. The last of these Peters
left two daughters whereof one was married
to Bigod and the other to Salwaine. Bigod
had in division Mulgrave with eight townlettes
there about and the see cost belonging to
it whereof Seton therby was one, he also had
Mount Ferrant with Birdsall and Swaledale
lordship in Richmondshire with others. Some
say that Mount Ferrant was thus thrown down,
the second of the Bigods of Settrington, after
the death of Bigod (the Earl) Marshall did
secretly woo and won the will of one of the
Albermarl's daughters Earl of Holderness.
Whereupon Albermarl with great indignation,
Bigod being absent, assaulted Mount Ferrant,
won it and raised it. Yet Bigod after made
his peace with Albermarl, and had his daughter
by means of intercessor, amongst hwome the
Prior of Wotton was the chiefest, to whose
house Bigod after for love impropriated the
personage (parsonage) of Birdsall. And some
say that this Bigod made of the manor of Mulgrave
a castle in recompence of Mount Ferrant.
