Historic England has recently supported some research into the medieval origins of the castle, and on 30th March their findings were unveiled at a public talk, where we were pleased to see all seats filled!
Penny Middleton of NAA Heritage Consultants reported on her research and speculated on the nature of the buildings and layout that pre-date the medieval structures that still exist. Attendees were then taken in small groups through the cellars to spot features from the talk in context. If you missed out, read on for details about our guided tours of the castle: another chance to visit the medieval cellars and to learn more about the history of this fascinating building.
