  • Pevensey Castle, nestled on the South-Eastern coast of England, holds a rich history that spans over a millennium. Originally built by the Romans in the 4th century, this historic fortress played a crucial role in the defence against Saxon raids. The castle's strategic location, surrounded by water during high tide, made it an ideal stronghold to safeguard against invaders.
    In 1066, Pevensey Castle became a pivotal site during the Norman Conquest of England. William the Conqueror chose the castle as his landing point, and it served as the staging ground for the Norman forces before the famous Battle of Hastings. Over the centuries, the castle underwent various modifications, reflecting the changing needs and architectural styles of each era.
    During the medieval period, Pevensey Castle continued to play a significant role, witnessing various conflicts and serving as a royal residence. Its sturdy walls and towers withstood the test of time, becoming a symbol of resilience and endurance.

    Hi Alessa and Brett, Another Epic Film!!!
    I am not familiar with the UK history in depth and I thank you, two for such remarkable work. History I have never heard of, but absolutely, I can feel bitter stories through the film, especially you are such an experienced storyteller. This castle endured not only one, not two.......so much wars it is involved in up to WWII. Some Bloody story....
    Wowo a drone lift off...Now I see a whole picture of history, PPL's lives stained this property. It must have been a muscular-look of castle.
    Thank you all. majestic!!!! see you next one...

    I'm glad, that they added staircases and walkways to the ruin. So you are able to see more of the ruin and get a good overview of the area. Cool that they made an indoor display area. The drone footage looks stunning.

Enjoyed hearing the ghost story, OOh the dungeon looked a dreadful place to have been put in, I woiuldn't want to be down there for very long.

    Looks an impressive place with lots of history. Ah the old ghost stories and a lady in white. The ghost busters have been down to, to verify. Loved the old canon that's still in awesome condition but probably has a bit of refurb. Some nice nooks and crannies in there. Super weather day for an explore and the colour of the sky added to watch. Fabulous narration as always 👍Paul
