Stokesay Castle

"Stokesay Castle is one of the most perfect and interesting specimens of an early fortified mansion in England; and from the beauty of its situation, in a valley bounded by steep and richly wooded hills, at whose base the river Oney flows through luxuriant meadows, it forms an object as interesting to the artist as to the antiquarian." Extract from "Historical sketch of Stokesay Castle" (Open Library)

Stokesay Castle is a English Heritage property with free entry for English Heritage members.
