== Residences == [[File:Hans Holbein the Younger - Thomas Howard, 3rd Duke of Norfolk (Royal Collection).JPG|thumb|[[Thomas Howard, 3rd Duke of Norfolk]], holding the baton of the [[Earl Marshal]]]]The main residences commonly associated with the Dukes of Norfolk are: [[Framlingham Castle]], [[Bungay Castle]], as well as [[Clun Castle]] in [[Shropshire]], which are now largely ruins; [[Worksop Manor]], [[Carlton Towers]], [[Norfolk House]] in [[London]], and most notably [[Arundel Castle]]. [[File:18th Duke of Norfolk Allan Warren.jpg|thumb|18th Duke of Norfolk, then the Earl of Arundel, at [[Carlton Towers]], 1981]] '''Framlingham Castle''' was originally a part of the properties of the Earls of Norfolk, but when the title fell from use, the castle was administered by the crown. In 1397, it was given to Thomas Mowbray, 1st Duke of Norfolk, by King Richard II. And when the Mowbray line became extinct, it passed eventually to the [[Howard family]]. Major repairs to this castle were carried out in 1485 by John Howard, 1st Duke of Norfolk (second creation). The castle would remain in the Howard family, and thus the Dukes of Norfolk, for a while, but would eventually pass from their possession. In 1553, for example, Framlingham was given to [[Mary I of England|Mary Tudor]], sister of [[Edward VI of England|King Edward VI]].<ref>{{cite web|url=http://www.castles-abbeys.co.uk/Framlingham-Castle.html|title=www.castles-abbeys.co.uk|website=castles-abbeys.co.uk}}</ref> '''Bungay Castle''' was also originally a part of the properties of the Earls of Norfolk. In 1483, it passed into the possession of John Howard, 1st Duke of Norfolk, and the family continued to own it, apart from brief periods, until the late 20th century. However, the castle has long been in a state of decay. Consequently, in 1987, the 17th Duke of Norfolk presented the castle to the town, which had already begun its own restoration attempts, with an endowment towards its preservation. It is now owned and administered by the Castle Trust.<ref>{{cite web |url=http://www.bungay-suffolk.co.uk/history/castle.htm |title=Bungay Suffolk Town Guide |publisher=Bungay-suffolk.co.uk |access-date=2010-11-16 |url-status=dead |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20110514135546/http://www.bungay-suffolk.co.uk/history/castle.htm |archive-date=14 May 2011}}</ref> [[File:Arundel Castle 2.jpg|thumb|[[Arundel Castle]]]] '''Carlton Towers''' is in [[Carlton, Selby|Carlton]], [[North Yorkshire]]. It is a [[Victorian era|Victorian]] [[Gothic revival|gothic]] [[English country house|country house]] remodelled by [[Edward Welby Pugin]] for the 8th [[Baron Beaumont]]. It is the Yorkshire home of the Duke of Norfolk. Though the Duke of Norfolk's family still live in part of the house, it is now largely used for wedding receptions and similar events. '''Arundel Castle''' has been the principal seat of the Dukes of Norfolk and their ancestors for more than 850 years. Built in the 11th century by [[Roger de Montgomerie, 1st Earl of Shrewsbury|Roger de Montgomery]], [[Earl of Arundel]], the castle was seized by the crown in 1102. [[Henry II of England|King Henry II]], who added on to the castle, in 1155 confirmed [[William d'Aubigny, 1st Earl of Arundel|William d'Aubigny]] as Earl of Arundel, with the honour and the castle of Arundel. Arundel Castle is still to this day the home of The Duke and Duchess of Norfolk and their children. The [[Fitzalan Chapel]], founded in 1390 by the 4th Earl of Arundel, is located on the western grounds outside the castle, and has been the burial place of the most recent Dukes of Norfolk.<ref>{{cite web |url=http://www.arundelcastle.org/index.htm |title=Arundel Castle |publisher=Arundel Castle |access-date=2010-11-16 |url-status=dead |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20100620044024/http://arundelcastle.org/index.htm |archive-date=20 June 2010}}</ref> '''[[Glossop Hall]]''' as an occasional residence is situated in the High Peak District of Derbyshire. As the family became closely connected with Sheffield, the Farm in [[Glossop]] became increasingly used, particularly when Henry Howard lived there in the 1760s; when the 14th Duke enlarged The Farm as an occasional residence; and during the time of the 15th Duke, Henry Granville Fitzalan-Howard, who had interest in the activities of the city. The Glossop estate was sold by the family in 1925.
