English Castles

Bodiam - East Sussex

The romantic and beautifully preserved Bodiam Castle is surrounded by a wide moat and was originally built in the 14th century. This medieval castle survived many attacks, but was eventually damaged by English soldiers during the 1600s.

Medieval mercenaries lived in special quarters built in Bodiam Castle. Visitors can climb to the top of the castle towers for impressive views of the countryside and the castle's moat.
