Flood-plain of the River Rother, Bodiam village and the popular Bodiam Castle, East Sussex.
Commentary.
Bodiam Castle is of a classic, Medieval vintage.
Rounded corner towers.
Vast moat.
Portcullis.
Drawbridge.
Castellated, with arrow-slit windows.
Keep and dungeons.
As seen here, it is always a popular
venue, for all ages.
It stands on slightly higher ground
than the partially flooded, flood-plain.
The southern levee is clearly visible and both
levees are used as raised footpaths.
To add to the attractions, just behind
the location where this shot was taken,
volunteers re-furbished and re-instated
the Kent and Sussex Railway.
It runs from Tenterden in Kent
to Bodiam in East Sussex, and back.
It has steam-driven engines, and is just as
popular as the castle, during the summer months.
