Castles and trains

A selection of photos from a recent National Trust themed day out with my mother and her partner. We rode the East Sussex and Kent railway from Tenterden to Bodiam on a diesel train, explored Bodiam castle and then back to Tenterden, this time on the steam train. A quick stop off at Scotney Castle on the drive home.
