Tamworth Castle, viewed against a bright blue skyline, with the statue of Aethelflaed on a plinth to the side

Tapestry showing a finely dressed woman in the centre surrounded by two men in an abundantly floral garden

Grand Castle entrance, leading to a large oak door where hangs a Christmas wreath. Either side of the entrance are two huge Nutcracker figures.

All hail, First Lady of the Mercians! 👑

A delightful day out at one of our newest stockists, Tamworth Castle

The statue of Aethelflaed was lovely, if too high to see clearly

Tricorn provided and not model’s own, alas

Outside Tamworth Castle there’s a statue of Aethelflaed, Lady of the Mercians. Obviously it would have been wrong to visit the castle and not take along my Aethelflaed mini from Bad Squiddo Games! #wargaming #miniatures #nerdlings #badsquiddogames #tamworthcastle

Running the Battle of Bosworth at Tamworth Castle today using Midgard Heroic Battles. What an amazing location for a wargame! #wargaming #miniatures #nerdlings #spreadthelard #warsoftheroses #tamworthcastle

Superb Friday afternoon at Tamworth Castle!

Great castle, great people!

One of Britain's only shell-wall castles, don't you know?!

Basically half way on my journey home to Liverpool from Bourne End, Bucks.
