Corfe Castle
Corfe Castle rises from its Dorset hilltop like a ruin from a fairy tale — a jagged silhouette of shattered towers and crumbled walls left by Parliamentary forces after a legendary Civil War siege. The village of Corfe Castle nestles at its foot, and the views from the gatehouse across the Isle of Purbeck are simply magnificent.
- Dramatic ruined castle on a hilltop
