Broncroft Castle

Highlight • Other

This grand, fortified manor house was originally built in the 14th century. Slightly in the 1600s, it was rebuilt in the 17th century and again in the 19th. The castle is a private residence with extensive gardens but it can be easily viewed from the road.

Corfham Castle Ruins

Highlight • Castle

Corfham Castle was once a beautiful large rectangular building with four circular corner towers. Today, it is just the ringworks and earthworks that remain of this 13th century castle, but with some imagination you can visualise what this structure was once like in its heyday.
