#lksawaydays 5a/2020 #lksawaydays After enjoying the previous weeks step back in time we decided for today's part 1 to continue on the theme of castles. With our destination programmed into the satnav we headed off to Shropshire to visit the medieval castle at Ludlow. Just before 10am after a pleasant 3 hour car journey #lksawaydays arrived in the Salop town of Ludlow, perfect timing as the site was just opening. At that time of the morning there was plenty of space for street parking, which are controlled by parking meters. After a short 2 minute walk we were greeted by a very jolly lady in the ticket office & shop who gave us our tickets and some information about the site. After paying the £7 per adult we left the shop and forged ahead to explore the 12th century fortification. Ludlow Castle sits alongside the River Teme and is one of the first stone castles to be built in England. The castle believed to be founded by Walter de Lacy in 1075 was empty, not a soul and we soon realised we were the only 2 people walking around the mossy defunct ruins, I did try my hardest to get Mrs LK to play hide and seek but after a long thoughtful pause she just shook her head at me! Ludlow castle has plenty of nooks and crannies to explore as well as a great view across Shropshire once you reach the top. A pleasant morning exploring a castle that has a rich history behind it came to a close. #lksawaydays give Ludlow Castle a 👍#uk #castle #outandabout #history #ludlow #travel
