We must have gone to Dudley Castle sometime in 1994, as I took this photo and it was in the album. Lucky that I noted down what it was on the back of the print.

If I was to ever go back to Dudley (on my own) I would want to take a digital shot like this. Probably best to wait for the Spring before going there (assume I could go on the bus using my bus pass).

Dudley Castle is a ruined castle in the town of Dudley, West Midlands, England. Dudley Zoo is located in its grounds. The location, Castle Hill, is an outcrop of Wenlock Group limestone that was extensively quarried during the Industrial Revolution, and which now along with Wren's Nest Hill is a Scheduled Ancient Monument as the best surviving remains of the limestone industry in Dudley. It is also a Grade I listed building. The Dudley Tunnel runs beneath Castle Hill, but not the castle itself.

The castle ruins are Grade I listed.

Limestone faced with reddish sandstone. C14 oblong keep with semi-circular towers at angles. C14 barbican and curtain walls. C16 hall with remains of 8-light transomed mullions. Chapel with undercroft. Remains of minor adjuncts, kitchens etc on opposite side of upper bailey. The castle was visited by Queen Elizabeth I and was inhabited until 1750 when it was destroyed by fire. AM.
