Arundel Castle
The West Sussex castle of Arundel dates back to the 11th century even though just like many other English castles, large parts were entirely rebuilt later on, during the 18th and 19th centuries.
Arundel Castle is among one of the castles that were built by William the Conqueror. During the English Civil War, the castle underwent serious damage but a new folly overlooking Swanbourne Lake was built in the 18th century.
Arundel Castle was one of the first English castles that enjoyed the luxury of central heating, electricity, and lifts.
