    Middleham Castle is spectacular to look at. It is remarkably well preserved given that the central keep is the from the 11th century and extensions were added up to the 15th century. As you cycle past there is a great view from the road, but if you take the road heading south to the east of the castle, Canaan Road, there is an even better view. Unfortunately Canaan Road is a dead end.



    Middelham Castle was the childhood home of Richard III and is now owned by English Heritage. See their website for further details, opening times and prices english-heritage.org.uk/visit/places/middleham-castle
