A 1000 Year Old Medieval Castle

Today we have something different for you with boots on the ground visiting a Medieval Castle in England and wanted to share it with you. Join me on this trip of adventure and history. Perched on a ridge high above the Vale of Scarsdale, on the site of a medieval fortress, Bolsover Castle. The castle was founded in the late 11th century by William Peveril, one of William the Conqueror's knights, but it was neglected from the mid-14th century. Its ruins provided the setting for the Little Castle begun in 1612 by Sir Charles Cavendish. Consider subscribing and hit the like button. It is free and helps support the channel.
