Baconsthorpe Castle

I was recently walking from Bodham and came upon the wonderful Baconsthorpe Castle.  I have included an article on this in the past and it is well worth repeating.  I would normally recommend a visit to the castle but it looks like there is some building work going on at present.  You can park at the castle at a cost of £2 and explore this excellent fortified house.  The castle, moat and gardens are lovely on a summers day.  Anyway, who built and lived at the castle?  How did it become a Tudor wool factory? It’s a story of rags to riches and back to rags!  The answers and much more are in the following articles:
