A morning at Bolsover castle
A trip up the M1 for a short journey to see Bolsover castle the home of Charles Cavendish built in the 11th century ,and sized by the crown in 1155,but neglected from the middle of the 14th century ,we had English heritage membership bought as a present for christmas by Paula ,Paul,and Harvey, So thought what a great idea to visit and what a great idea it was
