Beeston Castle Castles
Standing majestically on a sheer rocky crag, Beeston has perhaps the most stunning views of any castle in England. Its history stretches back more than 4,000 years to when it was a Bronze Age hillfort. The huge castle was built in 1226 and soon became a royal stronghold, only falling centuries later during in the Civil War. 'The Castle of the Rock' exhibition outlines the history of this strategic site from prehistoric times, through the Middle Ages to the Civil War. .
