Warwick Castle

Experience over 1000 years of history at Warwick Castle. For nearly 600 years the Mill and Engine House used the power of the River Avon to grind grain. A century ago that same `hydro´ power was harnessed by the Castle´s engine house to generate electricity for the household. The beautifully proportioned conservatory, which acts as a focal point in the landscape, was built in 1786 by a local mason, William Eborall. Originally, it was designed as a home for the Warwick Vase, a magnificent piece of ancient Roman pottery excavated near Tivoli in 1771. The Rose Garden, like the Peacock Garden was designed by Robert Marnock.lovingly brought back to life in 1986.
