Back
Camber Castle lies between Rye and Winchelsea and was originally located on a shingle spit which protected the approach to these towns. It was taken into Guardianship in 1967 and initial consolidation work was carried out between 1969 and 1975. This involved structural work, particularly to the keep, hard capping the wall tops and extensive repairs to the brickwork. A further programme of consolidation, particularly to the courtyard surfaces and re-pointing of brickwork in lime mortars, was completed in 1995. This work has enabled a limited public opening of the castle but you can visit the outside of the castle on any day. The castle is open on Saturday and Sunday afternoons (2-5pm) in July, August and September or by guided walks on various dates. There is a small charge for entry (£2 adults, £1 concessions, accompanied children free)
