CALUDON CASTLE PARK

Located near Coventry, England’s West Midlands, the castle of Caludon is both a Grade I listed building and a Scheduled Ancient Monument. Just 190 metres to the south of the first moated site lies another, independently protected ancient structure. All that's left of the castle now is a huge chunk of crumbling sandstone wall.

Caludon Castle, whose ruins are on the property, is a Grade 1 English Heritage site. According to the Archaeological and Historical Study of Caludon Castle, the earliest dwelling on this location was built towards the end of the 12th century. Afterwards, new structures were constructed or renovated, and the original location of the main building was relocated further north. To this day, just the wall of the banquet hall and the space where the fish pool used to be. The Green Flag has been flying over Caludon Castle Park for the past three years. The playground, designed to seem like a mediaeval castle, features a drawbridge and shields for all the kids to play with. It's in great shape and packed to the gills with all the latest playground equipment, including toddler swings, junior swings, a giant wooden climbing frame in a mediaeval style with two slides and a rope climb, a multi-play set with a rope climb, a Triple springer, a Zipwire, , and a Gravity Bowl.
