Stokesay Castle, Shropshire, one of the most stunning buildings in England. Built late 13thC by wealthy wool merchant, Laurence of Ludlow, it’s a glorious example of a fortified Manor House. The great hall retains its original roof & wooden staircase. Famous yellow gatehouse is 17thC #stokesaycastle

Out flexing my English Heritage membership at Stokesay Castle.
It is very pretty and seems like it was wasted on me as a school trip, way back when.

Stokesay Castle, one of England’s best-preserved medieval manor houses, shines in the snow. Built in the 13th century, its iconic yellow gatehouse (added in the 17th century) features carvings of an angel and the Stokesay Dragon 🐉✨.

I’m pretty sure that in bird language that baby bird was telling its parent to go and find some food.
Spotted in Stokesay Castle in Shropshire, which is full of birds’ nests this time of year #babybird #bird #stokesaycastle #stokesay

Come with me for walk up a 13th century wooden staircase. Even bannister rails are original (although not the netting, which replaced wooden panelling). Staircase in great hall at Stokesay Castle, Shropshire is an amazing survival. 700+ years old! #stokesaycastle #stokesay #medieval #medievalcastle

Had a lovely day out with Tina at the @EnglishHeritage site #StokesayCastle today.
They had some mediaeval archers, a French Knight and a feast fit for the lady of the house, who, you will be pleased to hear, washed her hands before eating. Yes even in medieval times!

The timber-framed gatehouse of Stokesay Castle in Shropshire. The castle is essentially a 13th-century fortified manor-house, while the gatehouse dates to the early 17th century. 📸 My own. #Woodensday #StokesayCastle #Shropshire

Two drawings of Stokesay Castle.
The top one was drawn in 1955 by my dad Max and the bottom one was drawn by me yesterday, 70 years later.
