The Duke's Palace
Yesterday I visited the Palace of the Duke and, Isla and Archie, it was just like the palace in Frozen!
We were allowed to go into some of the beautiful big rooms and into the wine cellar and up the very high tower.
The stairs to the tower were very narrow and very steep and soldiers would have climbed them 1000 years ago.
There were slots in the walls for the soldiers to fire their arrows out of. You would have liked to see those Henry and Harry and Ralph.
There was a ledge to walk around at the very top where you could see all around the town, so if anyone tried to get into the Palace the soldiers could have shot them with their arrows straight away.
Luckily there wasn't much fighting in the end - but the Duke was ready in case there was!
