一座伊丽莎白时代的豪宅的遗迹在15世纪都铎王朝城堡的围墙内,由Pomeroy家族建造。 Berry Pomeroy的不寻常之处在于,虽然庄园很古老,可能在诺曼征服之前就以 "Berri "的名字存在了,但城堡的地基并不古老。 Ralph de Pomeroy爵士在《多米尼克日》中被列为Berry封地的主人。书上说,虽然这里是男爵领地的所在地,但显然没有城堡,只是在附近有一个不设防的庄园。

城堡的基础可能可以追溯到玫瑰战争或都铎王朝早期。 建设可能在亨利-波梅罗伊,从1461年到1487年的贝里-波梅罗伊的所有者,或理查德-波梅罗伊爵士,他的继承人的一生中开始。 似乎很可能,建设的动力来自德文郡的无法无天,在玫瑰战争期间和他们的法国人的袭击也被认为是造成这些可怕防御的原因之一,这些防御包括幕墙、炮台、塔楼和干护城河。 贝里-波默尔被认为是英国最后一个采用这些传统特征的城堡之一。

1547年,萨默塞特公爵爱德华-西摩(Edward Seymour)从波梅罗伊家族手中购买了贝里波梅罗伊。 在他被处决后,他的继承人在城堡的围墙内制定了新的建筑计划,在此过程中拆除了一些内部结构。 西摩打算把它变成德文郡最壮观的房子,于1560年开始建造他的四层新房子。 从1600年开始,他的儿子对它进行了扩建。它被认为是英国最闹鬼的城堡之一。
