Tutbury Castle, Medieval castle in Tutbury, England
The stone fortress stands on a ridge above the River Dove, featuring two outer baileys and a D-shaped inner bailey with a Norman chapel.
William the Conqueror granted the castle to Henry de Ferrers in 1071, establishing it as a strategic stronghold in the Midlands region.
The castle grounds include a medieval herb garden and Tudor-style garden recreations that demonstrate historical horticultural practices of different periods.
Tutbury Castle opens Thursday through Sunday from 11 AM to 5 PM, with the nearest train station within a 10-minute walking distance.
Mary Queen of Scots endured four periods of imprisonment at Tutbury Castle, connecting the structure to plots against Elizabeth I.
