Step back in time and uncover the rich tapestry of history woven into the very stones of Pevensey Castle. Spanning nearly two millennia, this remarkable site has witnessed the rise and fall of empires, from its origins as a Roman fort to its transformation by the Normans, its use by royalty, and its role as a Second World War training ground.

Join Dr. Richard Nevell on an immersive tour of the castle ruins, where he will piece together the dramatic events of that fateful year. Through meticulous evidence and captivating storytelling, you'll gain insight into the castle's impact on Pevensey and the broader implications for medieval royal power.
