Hiking

You could easily walk right on by, perhaps admire the church spire, and continue without ever realising there's a castle here. When you pause and look though, the remaining earthworks are easy to see, with origins harking back to before the Norman conquest. Low-lying, the castle relied on the waterways around to provide defence and Harold Godwinson is alleged to have spent the night here just before the Battle of Hastings. The castle itself was built after, when the manor was given to William de Warenne.
