Mourholme, Maurholme, Morhull or Merhull was a manor and castle in north Lancashire, England, in the present parish of Warton, north of Carnforth. The castle of "Merhull" was surrendered to King John in 1216 by Gilbert Fitz Reinfred. It is not known whether it was built of timber or of stone. The site of the castle was partially excavated in 1975, at which time it had already been damaged by gravel extraction, and the site has since been flooded forming Pine Lake, which lies east of the A6 road and west of the M6 motorway.

  • Mourholme, auch Maurholme, Morhull, oder Merhull, waren die Namen einer Grundherrschaft und einer Burg in der heutigen Gemeinde Warton, nördlich von Carnforth in der englischen Grafschaft Lancastershire. Die Garnison der Burg Merhull unter Gilbert FitzReinfred ergab sich 1216 den Truppen König Johann Ohnelands. Man weiß nicht, ob die Burg aus Stein oder Holz bestand.In einem Teil des Anwesens wurden 1975 Ausgrabungen durchgeführt. Damals waren die Überreste durch den Kiesabbau schon weitgehend zerstört. Zwischenzeitlich wurde die frühere Kiesgrube geflutet und bildet heute den Pine Lake östlich der Staatsstraße A6 und westlich der Autobahn M6. Der Name ist heute noch im Titel der „Mourholme Local History Society: The Society for the Old Parish of Warton, Lancashire“ erhalten, die sich um die Geschichte der Gemeinden Borwick, Carnforth, Priest Hutton, Silverdale, Yealand Conyers und Yealand Redmayne kümmert. Die Gesellschaft veröffentlicht The Mourholme Magazine of Local History. (de)
