Unlike many old mansions and castles, you get a fantastic view of Herstmonceux Castle as you cycle past. Don't just fly by though, take a moment to stop on the green overlooking the 15th century building and moat. It was one of the first in England to be built using bricks. Herstmonceux Castle has a happy tale to tell of resurrection. In 1777 it was all but demolished, with just the exterior walls left standing. Very unusually for buildings on this scale, in the early 19th century it was rebuilt.
