In the Parlour, the Castle’s volunteers demonstrated medieval spinning, as well as medieval toys and games for both children and adults, and many adventurers successfully followed the trail looking for shields all around the Great Tower to help Lord Cromwell and his knights in preparing the battle.
A perfect start to summer for all, with the sun shining hot, deckchairs available, ice cream sold in the Guardhouse and picnicking everywhere in the grounds.
