Raglan Castle

On the way back From Wales we thought that we would make a little stop at Raglan Castle which is near Monmouth. It is the ruin of a Castle from the 15th century (House of Lancaster, House of York and the Tudors).

It saw the War of the Roses through to the civil war and was abandoned when the war ended and left for Ruin.
It was great fun to look around and had lots of little passageways and a vaults. It also had a great tower, which was octagonal in shape.








There was also multilingual warning signs which were very amusing...



We then travelled back home, went shopping and cooked an awesome Chinese in Stu and Helen's kitchen and then played Trivial Pursuit...A game I am rubbish at! It was fun though.
