It was the day we went to the Devil's Punchbowl and we thought we would go somewhere else before we went home. "I know somewhere we haven't been", I said. Weeting Castle is not far from Brandon, on the B1106 - here on the map. So we went to see.
It is actually the ruin of moated manor house, rather than a castle, but no matter. The most recognisable part of the main structure is the remains of the Great Hall.
There are plenty of stone walls to be told off for clambering on!
The ice house is still pretty well intact, though.
Quite interesting, with some informative signs from English Heritage, but not a place I would go out of my way to visit. I thought St. Mary's church next door was much more interesting!
