Newark: Castle Newark: Castle No Data

Description


Whilst there is only one wall, some fragments of towers and parts of the gatehouse remaining, Newark Castle is still an impressive ruin set on the banks of the River Trent. During the summer months there are tours of both the towers and the dungeons. The gatehouse, one of the largest remaining parts of the castle, was the site where King John (he of the Robin Hood legends, and factually the Magna Carta) died in 1216 following a feast in the castle
