Richmond Castle

Great views fro. The Richmond Castle over town and surrounding areas. We had an English Heritage pass so no additional charge ... Nice little shop with selection of ice creams and some local gin too.

Great day at Richmond Castle again. Norman re-enactment group, in place over this weekend. Very good showing different types of Armour and weapons of that time. Shields, maces and of course swords. Stalls talking about the found options at the time with taste options, cheese cake very nice, but not like modern cheese cake. Another stall concentrated on the types of medicines at the time, more options than you might think, very informative. All in all a great day thanks

We had a wonderful time visiting Richmond Castle! The site is full of fascinating history, and the surrounding area is absolutely beautiful. The castle sits right in the heart of a charming town with convenient parking nearby. The staff were all very friendly and helpful, and the English Heritage facilities were great. There are accessible toilets and facilities for disabled visitors, which was really appreciated. We explored the castle easily even with a young child. Highly recommended for a peaceful and scenic day out!

Partially ruined castle with the keep still standing and accessible giving fantastic views over the surrounding countryside There is a large grassy areas inside the walls suitable for games and picnic. One dide of the castle ends in a steep drop and isn't adequately fenced off so keep an eye on children There is also a small exhibition room just off the entrance charting the history of the castle and its inhabitants which is quite interesting

Parking in the town centre. Busy but managed to park ok. Some disabled parking. Lovely town centre with a small market on when we went. Short uphill walk to the castle. Stunning views. Climb the keep for fantastic views all round. The Green Howard's regimental museum is close by.
