WARKWORTH CASTLE

Started in wood in the late 11th century and then extended, the unusual multiangular keep being added at the end of the 14th century. It fell into decay and was partly demolished for building materials although the powerful keep remained and was restored in the 19th century.

English Heritage open all year.
