Tel: 01580 830196
The striking Bodiam Castle began life in 1385 and is a typical moated, quadrangular fortification. It was initially designed to protect the area from French invasion but it is in actual fact poorly designed; there are too many windows, the moat is too shallow and the walls are not thick enough. Now a National Trust property, Bodiam Castle is open to the public.
