Lying atop a steep hilltop above the river Croquet, Warkworth Castle is an impressive fortress with towered walls that remain largely intact. Built in the 12th century, the castle had famous owners such as the Percy family who were one of the most powerful families in the North at the time. Their son 'Harry Hotspur' was a character in Henry IV by Shakespeare.

Today, you can visit the castle from 10am to 6pm daily. Tickets for adults cost £7.20. The castle also hosts various events such as medieval myths and legends. You can find more information, here: english-heritage.org.uk/visit/places/warkworth-castle-and-hermitage
