The antient Norman keep at Goodrich Castle has been completely engilphed by the massive 13c walls. Given its setting this is surely one of Britain’s most interesting castles to visit.


Goodrich is an unexpectedly massive castle in an area where smaller Norman castles abound.

Nature has provided its own cushion for this old window seat. Surely more beautiful than any tapestry cushion! The castle ruin is full of ancient “mod-cons”.
