Описание: I took a few short videos while passing Conisbro Castle between Doncaster and Rotherham Yesterday.

Here's a bit of background for the Castle.

Conisbrough Castle is a 12th-century medieval fortification in South Yorkshire, celebrated for its unique architecture and its role as the inspiration for the Saxon castle in Sir Walter Scott’s classic novel, Ivanhoe. Originally founded as a wooden motte-and-bailey shortly after the Norman Conquest, it was later rebuilt in stone by Hamelin Plantagenet, the half-brother of King Henry II. Today, it stands as one of the best-preserved examples of medieval military architecture in the region.
Unique Circular Keep: Rising nearly 100 feet, the castle features a rare cylindrical keep supported by six massive buttresses—a design that is unique in England and reflects its builder's high status.
Immersive Projections: Visitors exploring the keep's chambers are guided by larger-than-life wall projections of historical figures, including builders, servants, and ladies-in-waiting, who share stories of medieval life.
Panoramic Rooftop Views: Once you climb the spiraling staircases to the roof of the keep, you are rewarded with sweeping views over the town of Conisbrough and the surrounding rolling countryside.
Interactive Visitor Centre: The on-site museum traces the castle's 900-year history through artifacts, a 3D cutaway model for those avoiding the stairs, and exhibits on its connection to the novel Ivanhoe.
Family-Friendly Grounds: The grassy inner bailey is ideal for picnics and outdoor games, and the site frequently offers children's activities like the Folktale Creature Trail.
The castle is currently managed by English Heritage and serves as an engaging historical site for families and history enthusiasts alike. Please note that while the grounds and visitor center are largely accessible, the keep involves steep, narrow stairs that may be challenging for some visitors.
