Re: Tamworth Castle *Loads of pictures*

I live fairly close and I didn't know it existed!
It looks well worth a visit.
It seems like a heck of a lot of money has been spent recently to restore it.

What was the entrance fee?

Great photos BTW.

Re: Tamworth Castle *Loads of pictures*

I been there as I live in nuneaton. Did you go out onto the roof? did you look over the top to the street and see all the old victorian terraced houses? Did you notice how thin they are at the rear?

Re: Tamworth Castle *Loads of pictures*

What great photos, it looks like a great day out, bit far for me though, Is the house still in private hands or owned by the National Trust?.

Re: Tamworth Castle *Loads of pictures*

Looks surprisingly comfortable, but the suit of armour in the corner would freak me out. Wonder if it's haunted. Great pictures by the way Be*.

I think it's owned by the Council...
