Number 25 - St Leonard's Tower
St Leonard's Tower is literally just a tower.... and you can't get inside. It's run by English Heritage and lives on the side of a road in Kent. It's a Norman tower keep and has been built on a sandstone ledge near a narrow valley. The views were good, and I love sandstone, but you couldn't see much of it.
There was a sign on the door that said it was an 'administration tower', we do NOT know what this means. Chloe was not impressed at all.
Very little is known about this castle, including who built it or why. So it was more the kind of building we just observed, wandered round, ran back down the hill to the car and darted off to the next castle.
Cost: Free
Hints and tips: We parked up the road in a car park opposite that looked like it was near some nice walks.
