ST BRIAVELS CASTLE

The castle now consists mainly of a large twin towered gatehouse dating from 1292 after the square keep that was built in the mid 12th century collapsed in the 1752. The bases of the towers are similar in design to those at nearby Goodrich. It is now used as a Youth Hostel.

English Heritage, open summer afternoons.
