A quick look at Scotney Castle in Kent – the Old Castle on the water and the Victorian New House above it. The medieval ruins date back to the 14th century, once built as a fortified manor to protect the estate during local unrest and periods of French coastal raids. The 19th-century house was designed to overlook the ruins, turning the whole valley into a landscaped view. A perfect blend of history, architecture and English garden design. #ScotneyCastle #Kent #NationalTrust #History #Architectu
