The History of Clitheroe over the years, very interactive for children. History of the Pendle Witches.
A small but interesting castle and museum. There are great views from the castle walls which make you appreciate how dominant the building is. Museum is worth a look with some unusual artefacts and history. There is also an onsite cafe.
Visited the castle keep today. The weather was gorgeous so could see all around the valley from from the top of the keep. A pleasant and value for money coffee was had from the cafe and sat in serene surroundings.
Nice gardens easy to walk around close to the town centre play area for the children the castle ground has a skate park
Great walk for a couple of hours. Nice views from the top of the castle. Children play area, maze and adventure playground will entertain children:)

Well worth taking to time to explore the castle, lots of history and photo ops, and at the end a great cafe for a drink
Thank you for posting a review. Hope you enjoyed the views from the castle keep. Did you find time to visit the museum or the art exhibition?
If you want to see the Ribble-Valley in all it's glory during any season, this is the place to see it from. The keep is open to the public, free of charge all year round. If it raining the indoor museum is fascinating.More
