How to find the castle
A couple of discreet signs point past the Methodist Church at the head of Galgate, and down this path, where the castle, hidden from the town, suddenly appears.
Barnard Castle

Barnard Castle is set on a high rock above the River Tees on the fringe of the market town which shares its name.

Now in the care of English Heritage, the castle takes its name from Bernard de Ballliol who founded it in the 12th century. The castle was later developed by Richard III.
