Berkhamsted Castle is a formidable Norman motte-and-bailey fortress in Hertfordshire. It is historically famous as the site where the Anglo-Saxons surrendered to William the Conqueror in 1066. For over 400 years, it served as a high-status royal residence, home to figures such as Thomas Becket, the Black Prince, and even Geoffrey Chaucer, who managed its upkeep. Architecturally, it is distinguished by its massive 12-metre motte and a rare, well-preserved system of double moats. Though largely in ruins today, the earthworks remain among the most impressive in England. Now managed by English Heritage, the site is free to explore and offers a direct link to the events that followed the Battle of Hastings.

Enjoyed my visit to Berkhampstead Castle. Another example of fortifications erected following the invasion of England by William The Conquerer in 1066. The aim, a symbol of power over the conquered Anglo-Saxons and the Normans wanted to make sure it stayed that way!!

Fantastic history here and appreciate what is left standing. A very peaceful lawn and area to take some quiet time out

This was on my route unexpectedly. Left my mouth open for a bit. Very beautiful.

Lovely ruins to look at!

Ashridge house and the surrounding woods are a great spot for a ride or a run. Elizabeth 1 spent parts of her childhood at the house.

The foundation for the original building was laid in 1280, where it was a Gatehouse for the northern approach to Ashridge and was used by Henry VIII as part of the hunting grounds. But following heavy damage by Cromwells armies, the lodge was rebuilt by the eminent architect Sir Jeffrey Wyattville in 1823. Little Gaddesden Lodge now functions extremely well as a private home.

Dinton is a charming little village situated in the south of the Aylesbury Vale on the ancient turnpike leading from Aylesbury to Thame. In the village you'll find an old folly, a converted castle, and a beautiful pub, Bottle & Glass.
