Walmer: Castle 
Description
One of three similar castle built during the reign of Henry VIII to protect this most vulnerable part of the country. The castles never really saw much action and from relatively early on Walmer was converted into a homely residential palace for the Lord Warden of the Cinque Ports. With the post of Lord Warden having been held by Wellington, Pitt the Younger, Churchill and the Queen Mother the castle has become a focal point for parts of their lives. An audio and video guide (on an iPod) guides you round the castle itself, there are also extensive gardens, including down into the moat, to explore
