im from the Netherlands i always loved English history i still remember the first time i heard about Pontefract castle, it was on the Robin of Sherwood series back in the 80's. nice to actually see it
I have visited Potifract castle a few time in my life, back in 1953 was the first time. I really enjoyed visiting Pontifract as my dad was stationed there for a while in the war.

It’s nice to see my hometown. Always really regret not appreciating the castle more while I had it so close by!

Like many who took part I have always loved archeology, particularly the archeology of England. This looks like so much fun and a great opportunity!
Brilliant work, well done all.
Amazing. I'd love to see updates!!
