Description

Stafford Castle, built by William the Conqueror to subdue rebellious local people, has dominated the Stafford landscape for over 900 years of turbulent history. Visitors today will find a more peaceful setting - follow the castle trail, explore the castle ruins and take in the panoramic views from the hilltop, stroll in the unique medieval herb garden and discover the dramatic story behind the castle walls. Fun-filled, informative tours and activities can be arranged for groups of all kinds, from school tours to children's parties with a difference. Special tours and workshops can also be arranged for adult groups. Please call before your visit for details on disabled access.
