Weird, I was just looking yesterday at a trip to Richmond castle, getting incepted over here
I don't remember there being too much to do since the castle was in really rough shape last i visited. Some plaques to reads, walk around the grounds, climb up the keep and gaze at the countryside. I wouldn't plan a whole day around it, but it's a lovely way to kill a couple hours if you are gonna be in the area.
Oh yeah that's just how most English Heritage places are 😆 what you "do" is walk around, read the plaques, and climb up bits if you're allowed - sometimes there's even a roof!
Ha, i suppose. Some just have a lot more to see than others. Like i mentioned elsewhere in the thread i got to see most of the big ones for the North growing up like Lindisfarne, Bede's World, the Viking Museum, and a couple of the old Abbeys around York. Even hiked to an ancient stone circle in a sheep pasture in either the Lake District or Northumbria. Not as old, but the National Train Museum was awesome as well.
Now that i think about it, i spent way more time in Yorkshire than i thought!
