Peveril Castle near Sheffield

Phoenix · 18-01-2009, 07:31 PM

My brother and I went to Peveril Castle on a day trip today!

Got some pictures to share with you all:

As you go towards the castle, there was a model of the castle to show you what the castle would have looked like ...

The pictures got jumbled up when I was uploading them (blame photobucket!!!) so you'll have to bear with me.

What you see as you approach the castle:

The view from all round:

There was a very steep drop all round, you would NOT want to fall down that hill!!!

The castle:

The Keep (my brother looks like a ghost in two of these - the lighting wasn't very good and there was a glare from the window)

I think I've got all the pictures ...

It was!

Except when I took the photos and showed my brother the bad quality ones, he insisted on acting like a ghost

What a lovely castle and views to go and see, the views looked fantastic, I have just shown my husband the pics, and he said we will have to have a trip out there ourselves.

. Could you please let us know where exactly it is that you went.

Peveril Castle, in Castleton. If you go as though you are going to Sheffield, then follow the signs for Castleton.

Be warned though, it's quite a trek up that hill!!!

Be careful of the hill there though!

If you fall down that your dead meat!
