Edlingham Castle and Rothbury - 01/08/2022

Trip to see Edlingham Castle and Rothbury
Edlingham Castle is a small castle ruin, having scheduled monument and Grade I listed building status, in the care of English Heritage. It is located in a valley to the west of Alnwick, Northumberland, England. It has been described as "...one of the most interesting in the county", by Nikolaus Pevsner, the architectural historian. Edlingham itself is little more than a hamlet with a church alongside the castle.
The riverside ruins of a manor house progressively fortified against the Scots during the 14th century.
The ruins are mostly laid low, though much of the solar tower still stands despite an impressive crack running several stories down to ground level. The foundations and part of the walls of the hall house, gatehouse, barbican and other courtyard buildings are still visible, most dating from the 16th century.
Rothbury is a market town and civil parish in Northumberland, England, on the River Coquet
