Old Wardour Castle in Wiltshire, England, tells a tale of medieval grandeur and historical upheaval. Built in the late 14th century by John, the 5th Lord Lovell, the castle was a testament to his status and affluence, characterized by a unique hexagonal design that set it apart from other English castles.

The Parliamentarian forces laid siege to Old Wardour Castle, resulting in significant damage and its eventual surrender in 1644. The castle was subsequently abandoned, leaving behind the captivating ruins that stand today. Managed by English Heritage, the castle attracts visitors who can explore the remnants of the octagonal tower, the chapel, and the surrounding grounds.
