After enjoying the Jurassic coastline and Durdle Door, Natalia, Jena and myself ventured on to Lulworth Castle, an early 17th century mock castle.The inside of the castle was destroyed by fire in 1929, and in the absence of floors and ceilings above the ground level, the appearance of doors and fireplaces halfway up the walls was strange and intriguing. The interior of the main castle is mostly hollow, but some nice views can be had from one of the towers, and there were some neat exhibits in the basement, with treasures and trinkets, and mock-up of the kitchen. Nearby, the Chapel of St Mary was very ornate inside (although no photography was allowed). We finished our exploration in the adjacent Church of St Andrew, a modest church with fairly humble interiors.The Castle is now managed by English Heritage, and is an interesting place to stop by if you happen to venture towards Durdle Door.
