Business Description

The executive summary for Sandal Castle is that it is a 13th-century stone castle with a fine motte and bailey, best known for the Battle of Wakefield during the Wars of the Roses. It was besieged twice during the English Civil War and has since been stripped of its defenses. Visitors can climb to the top of the motte for views of the Calder Valley and can see excavated finds in the Visitor Centre and Wakefield Museum. The castle also offers an activity trail and free-entry grounds for picnickers and dog-walkers.
