A view from the village street, as unfortunately the castle itself is now closed to visitors except by previous appointment. This medieval bridge is the oldest remaining part of the castle - and little else remains, apart from the earthworks themselves. It connects the bailey on the right, to the motte on the left hand side of the photo (hidden behind the willow tree).
