Description
Starting at 10.30 outside the castle gates at the end of The Long Walk
The castle is often dismissed as a nineteenth-century reinvention: a Gothic dream of what a medieval castle was supposed to look like. This walk around the outside of the castle aims to disprove this notion, unpicking the layers of history evident in its layout, design and fabric that date from the mid-twelfth century, as modified by almost every monarch since the Conquest.
