We’re thrilled to announce £1.4million support from @HeritageFundUK @HeritageFundM_E for our Newark Castle Gatehouse project which will create a new and improved visitor attraction at the Castle. A huge thanks to #NationalLottery players! #HeritageFund

Hooray for a four-day weekend! Why not get out and about in the fresh air and enjoy a lovely walk around our grounds and discover some of the history our Castle has seen over the years!

❗️A temporary path has been laid while we develop plans for a permanent replacement, and we will reseed the grass when the weather improves. The riverside path should be open again on Thursday.

The archaeologists at Newark Castle have now finished their investigations. 👀 Their findings will help us in the next stage of the Castle Gatehouse Project.

Merry Christmas! Thank you to everyone who's visited us, enjoyed a walk in our grounds and snapped a pic or two this year. We're really excited for what 2024 will bring!
