The World's 16 Most Abandoned Places

#6 The castle of Bodiam

Bodiam Castle, located in East Sussex, England, is a well-preserved historical monument. Sir Edward Dalyngrigge guided its construction in 1385. However, recent studies suggest that the castle's walls were too thin for battle and its waterbows were subpar, implying that its construction was more for show than defense. Despite these critiques, the castle and its water features remain impressive. The building's good condition is unusual for structures that have survived many battles, which suggests that Bodiam Castle may not have been involved in significant warfare. Lord Curzon's restoration work has contributed to the preservation of its beauty.
