more stuff plundered by the British Empire... Originally from Libya! 🤣

interesting, but you have to walk a little bit

North African Roman ruins in leafy Windsor Great Park! This is a really interesting story and worth reading more about after you've seen the ruins. Possibly inspired by Lord Elgin, British officer Hanmer Warrington shipped the ruins of the Temple of Augustus in 1817, with the intention of selling them to The British Museum. However, the museum was not interested, so the Roman temple ruins sat outside the museum for 8 years before being taken to Windsor and erected next to Virginia Water.

Reigate Castle is a former castle in the town of Reigate in the county of Surrey, England. The castle was built in the late 11th or early 12th century, probably by William de Warenne, 2nd Earl of Surrey. The castle was shaped like a motte-and-bailey castle and was originally built of wood, but the curtain walls were rebuilt in stone about a century later. None of the original castle buildings have been preserved, with the exception of the Barons' Cave, a cave beneath the castle that still exists and is occasionally open to the public. The castle grounds are now a public park and the castle gate is the main feature of the municipal coat of arms of Reigate and Banstead.

Guildford Castle is a hidden part of the city which is easy to miss if you run along the river or to the picturesque high street. It dates from the early Norman times and is always surrounded by beautiful flower displays in its grounds.

A great viewpoint of Farnham from above is from the Keep at the Castle.

The excellent Guildford Castle Grounds are unique, interesting and well worth visiting during a hiking, cycling or running tour. The Grounds are famous for their excellent flower displays in the valley that surrounds the Castle Keep. Other free attractions include the remains of Castle walls, passageways, a Victorian bandstand (where music concerts take place), a delightful 17th century bowling green bordered on one side by specimen beech trees, an impressive war memorial and a life-size statue of Alice Through the Looking Glass. Guildford Castle Grounds has a fascinating history. The Castle is thought to have been built either by William the Conqueror or by one of his barons soon after the Norman invasion of England in 1066. The Castle has been used as a Royal Palace, a prison and as a private residence. The grounds at the Castle were opened as public gardens in 1888 to mark the Golden Jubilee of Queen Victoria in 1887. You might wish to explore the Guildford Castle Grounds or to simply admire its scenery during a stop for a snack and a drink. However, should you have time, you may also wish to climb the Castle Great Tower via its spiral staircase. This will give a panoramic view of Guildford and its beautiful surrounding countryside, and provide an appreciation of why the Castle’s location is strategically good.
