The majestic Corfe Castle ruins, in Dorset, are one of Britain's most iconic and evocative survivors of the English Civil War. The castle, built for William the Conqueror around 1086, is 21m tall and on the top of a 55m high hill. This gleaming tower of Purbeck limestone could be seen from miles around. #dorset #visitengland #ruins #history #castlesofinstagram #corfecastle #reels #landscape #explore #visitdorset | Exploring GB
