Thanks, I’m glad you liked it. Took me a while to work out how to do that 😂

Incredible architecture 👌

[@relicsruins]

Nothing better than a ruined castle tower in my opinion! 😉 Thanks so much for watching!

[@PinnedonPlaces]

Really enjoyed the flight, the film and the narration and of course the extensive history that Hadleigh Castle possesses, it's super interesting! Thank you R&R, fab video!

[@relicsruins]

Aw thanks so much! I really appreciate it. I was a bit nervous about doing a video with the narration to camera, hope it wasn’t too bad 🙈😂

What did they use the stone for?

[@relicsruins]

I’ve not been able to find any specific information on that. Lord Riche bought the castle and estate for £700 and sold off the building stone. It was mainly Kentish ragstone which would have been quite valuable as a building material. Thanks for watching 😊
