Pengersick Castle is a fortified manor house located between the villages of Germoe and Praa Sands, in the civil parish of Breage, in Cornwall, England.

[2] Lysons (1814) wrote as follows: "There are considerable remains of an ancient castellated mansion on this estate, called Pendersick Castle, the principal rooms in which are made use of as granaries and hay-lofts; one of them, which is nearly entire, is wainscotted in panels; the upper part of the wainscot is ornamented with paintings, each of which is accompanied with appropriate verses and proverbs in text hand".

[5] The Militon family, which originated in Devon,[6] inherited (or otherwise acquired) Pengersick, and enlarged the building.

Sabine Baring-Gould wrote as follows:[7] Pengersick Castle was improved circa 1530 as a fortified manor house using the proceeds of the wreck of a valuable Portuguese ship.

[12] Historical research has proven some of these stories to be false: no monks were murdered there (although one was assaulted by Henry Pengersick), the supposed plague pits featured in the television programme Most Haunted were located in another part of the castle,[13] and the Black Dog is reported to be a myth created by 19th century smugglers to frighten people away.
