Dunster Castle  by wakelys

Dunster Castle


The long and eventful history of Dunster Castle starts with the de Mohuns who arrived soon after William the Conqueror became King of England in 1066. William de Mohun constructed a timber castle on the site of a Saxon hill fort as part of the pacification of Somerset.
Have to type on this one.... we love Dunster Castle ❤️ Many happy holidays at Blue Anchor on the steam railway line.

The turrets and flags flying on the roof make me think of knights but I guess they were around a bit before this castle. It does look like a strong fortress on the hill surrounded by the forest.

@serendypyty @carole_sandford well worth a visit if in North Somerset area. The gardens alone are really nice and the views are amazing. I took loads of photos but they did not do it justice. As all National Trust properties it is well cared for.
