Perched on top of a rocky outcrop high above the Cheshire plain, Beeston Castle is one of the most dramatic ruins in the English landscape. The castle was originally built upon the banks and ditches of an Iron Age hillfort. On a clear day you have spectacular views as far afield as the Pennines to the Welsh mountains. Visit and find out about the castle's 4,000-year history and there is even a 40-acre woodland park to explore. Simply a gem of English heritage.
