My town :) love walking around here on a rainy day
I live in Kenilworth and I’m very privileged to as it is voted top 3 safest and nicest areas in the midlands
So enjoyable to walk around the walls, visit the ruins and then stroll around the gardens remembering the words of Dan Snow
I love you Dan ur my guy xx

I used to live near here. Always felt a strange kind of a magic from this place. I used to stand in the areas surrounding it and feel an incredible surge of power. It's such a magical place. Helped me survive the darkest of times xx

John of Gaunt, not just a nobleman, but 3rd son of King Edward III, ancestor of all English monarchs 1399 0nward, all Scottish monarchs 1437 onward, and "also one of the wealthiest men to have ever lived. Taking into account inflation rates, John was worth a modern equivalent of $110 billion, making him the sixteenth richest man in history" wikipedia
Always loved Kenilworth Castle, but always wished someone would rebuild it to its former glory. It would be magnificent.
The main aspect would be its water defences in the form of the mere. Whereas many castles were surrounded by a moat, this was a huge artificial lake (reservoir) surrounding it on the two flattest sides, and inspired others elsewhere (e.g. Bodliam). Then of course there's Robert Dudley and his massive upgrade of the castle for the Queen's visit - sadly for him, she refused to marry him (or anyone else - that would have entailed giving up the throne and letting hubby run the country as King!)

@@Katie-rx8ql im only 54 but ive seen it go down hill a lot lol. god knows what an agricultural worker from the 18th c would think of it now its been fully converted to an unsustainable car filled shithole totally divorced from reality like everywhere else. ive watched as little green places, that escaped previous rounds of development, filled in with houses. cancer sometimes goes into remission. but the industrial civ only goes in one direction. never does a housing development get turned into fields or woods. soon the leyes land and castle hall site (which was originally compulsory purchased from my grandparents in the 1960s, )will be gobbled up, converted to new breeding colony. that new school is hideously massive. i know its replacing 3 schools (the sites only going to fuel the more people fire though) , but wtf. its more appropriate for a city the size of birmingham. the whole of birmingham lol. if the morons at the healm get their way (if they indeed have a plan at all) kenilworth will soon just be part of the birmingham, coventy, leamington spa conurbation. sigh, its progress i suppose lol

It's still beautiful. Too bad Cromwell died peacefully in his bed.
He had the wealth but too bad so sad he did not have her heart,but did give a very good try😣😥😔😕😞!!!
Why is my history teacher showing us this its 9 yrs old 😭😭😭😭
up the SWCHS
Hey you might want to go back to Mr. Dan Snow and challenge John of Gaunt's work on this castle .. .. knowledgable sources tell me that King Henry V did most of that building and did ,, in-fact ,, make it his home.. .. Other monarchs would tell you that they did NOT spend much time there .. .. as it was a fort!!
not the kids sliding down the hill
Looks like bear grylls
