Conisbrough Castle is one of Yorkshire's most well known and celebrated landmarks. Originating from the 12th century, the amount of history that this place has is mind-blowing. You can go on a guided tour of the interior or simply wander the grounds at your leisure. If you need a breather, there's plenty of pubs and cafes within earshot - The Terminus is the closest.
