Goodrich Castle


Standing in open countryside above the river Wye Goodrich Castle has to be one of the very finest and best preserved of all English medieval castles.
 This image is of just one small section of the castle but it shows how it seems to be growing out of the rock on which it has been built.

The castle is set near the Anglo/Welsh border but despite this it has led a mainly peaceful existence.

It's  ruined state is as a result of just one violent episode during the civil war of the 17th century.
