The Monday Piece - Ludlow Castle

This week's Monday Piece is on Ludlow Castle! This weekend my siblings, Nick and I took a trip out to Ludlow so we could explore the castle and it's grounds. Shropshire is such a pretty county and the little towns often have markets on during the weekend too so it's always worth a look round to see what you can pick up. We'd not been to the castle before so we were ready to learn some local history and what the castle had been though since the Norman Conquest of the 11th century. The motte and bailey design is still evident even after many centuries of alteration, it was interesting to look through the layers and climb up the tiny staircases to reach views of the Marches and other counties!
