Hardcastle Family History
Hardcastle Name Meaning
English (Yorkshire): habitational name from a place named with
Middle English hard ‘difficult’, ‘inaccessible’, ‘impregnable’,
or perhaps ‘cheerless’ + castel ‘castle’, ‘fortress’,
‘stronghold’ (see Castle), perhaps Hardcastle Garth in North
Yorkshire or Hardcastle Crags in West Yorkshire, although either or
both of these could be from the surname. It has been suggested that
the surname may come from a Roman fort forming part of Hadrian’s Wall
in northern England.
