Bodiam Castle is a stunning 14th-century castle located in the town of Robertsbridge, in the county of East Sussex, England. The castle is situated on the banks of the River Rother and is surrounded by a picturesque moat that adds to its charm and beauty.
The castle was built in 1385 by Sir Edward Dalyngrigge, a former knight of Edward III, as a defensive fortress to protect against French invasion during the Hundred Years' War. The castle has a square-shaped design with four circular towers at each corner, and a central courtyard that was used for various activities such as jousting and archery.
The castle's exterior is made of local sandstone and features a drawbridge, a portcullis, and battlements that were used for defense. The interior of the castle has been restored and features a great hall, a chapel, and various living quarters that were used by the castle's occupants.
One of the most impressive features of Bodiam Castle is its stunning views of the surrounding countryside. Visitors can climb to the top of the castle's towers and enjoy panoramic views of the River Rother and the rolling hills of East Sussex.
Today, Bodiam Castle is a popular tourist attraction and is open to the public for tours and events. Visitors can explore the castle's interior, walk along the battlements, and even take a boat ride on the castle's moat. The castle also hosts various events throughout the year, including medieval reenactments, jousting tournaments, and outdoor concerts.
Overall, Bodiam Castle is a must-see attraction for anyone visiting Robertsbridge or the surrounding area. Its rich history, stunning architecture, and beautiful surroundings make it a truly unforgettable experience.
