Fascinating history lessons for the whole family can be found by visiting this castle. The owners sold Berkeley Square in London to pay for the upkeep of this important castle. In the grounds of the castle is the house where Edward Jenner lived and developed the first smallpox vaccine by experimenting on a local child. He was regarded as the founder of immunology.
