Completed in 1875, the present building stands on the foundations of an ancient fortification. The settlement of South Cave is listed in the Doomsday Book as “Cave” and this consisted of three manors: East Hall, Faxfleet and West Hall. East Hall (also known as The Manor Paramount) refers to the area now known as South Cave, the home of Cave Castle The manor has had many owners including John Washington (1631-1677) the great grandfather of George Washington. But it was the Boldero-Barnard family who, in 1748, bought the site and resided there Little is known of the original building, however, the cellars with an escape tunnel to the nearby church pre-date 1791 when Henry Hakewill, architect of Rugby School, was commissioned to renovate and extend East Hall, which by then was known locally as Cave Castle The manor remained in the Boldero-Barnard family until 1925 when the last of the line, Ursula Mary, sold up and left for warmer climates.
