Bodiam Castle and Its Artificial Lake
Despite being in ruins today, Bodiam Castle is one of the most impressive castles in England. It is a medieval castle in East Sussex built to repel a French invasion during the Hundred Years’ War. The castle’s most intriguing aspect is its moat which is an artificial lake, making it seem like Bodiam is itself a small island. While the castle survived the Hundred Years’ War, it did not survive the English Civil War in the following centuries. Today, the castle, although some renovations happened, is in a ruined state and belongs to the British National Trust. The castle is also one of the most popular medieval sites in the country and one of the most loved.
