Old Wardour Castle

Come and explore Old Wardour Castle!

An audio tour, which is thoughtfully included in the ticket price, tells of Old Wardour's eventful past and the fighting it saw during the Civil War. The badly damaged castle became a fashionable romantic ruin, and in the 18th century was incorporated into the landscaped grounds of the New Wardour House. This bit however is not managed by English Heritage and no public access is permitted to New Wardour House or grounds. Nice to look at though!
