Bagots castle -baginton events

13/8/2019

 
Did you know that Bagot's Castle, a 14th century castle in the village of Baginton, Warwickshire in the English Midlands. It now stands in ruins, and this website is dedicated to those volunteers who are conserving what remains for future generations.

The original building is believed to have been constructed on the site in the 11th century, at the time of King Henry I. It was rebuilt as the current castle in the late thirteen hundreds by Sir William Bagot, a distinguished nobleman of the time. He is thought to have entertained many distinguished guests there, including the Duke of Hereford (later Henry IV).
In the last few years there has been renewed interest in the castle. The remains have been consolidated and the whole site opened up to expose other historic features. An education visitor centre has been built and a picnic area added for the many visitors that have visited the castle. Since it was opened to the public in 2009.
Between 13th -22nd September is HERITAGE WEEK where there will be a wide variety of children's and adult activities including games and competitions all designed to help you to "get to know" and understand this historical monument right on you door step.
