English Heritage: Old Wardour Castle

Now managed by English Heritage, Old Wardour Castle is a ruined medieval castle set in landscaped grounds in the Wiltshire countryside.
The hexagonal castle was built in the late 1390s for John, the 5th Lord Lovell, one of the richest barons in England and a kinsman of Richard II . It came into the ownership of the Arundell family in the 16th century, who “modernised” it and made it a luxurious Elizabethan mansion.
It became uninhabitable during the Civil War when it was accidentally blown up. In the 1760s and 1770s the 8th Lord Arundell built a country house, New Wardour Castle, nearby, and turned Old Wardour into a picturesque park of ruins, lake and woodland.
The castle, including the grotto in its grounds, appeared in the 1991 Kevin Costner film Robin Hood: Prince of Thieves.
