Welcome to Ludlow Castle

Delacy was allowed to rule over his land according to his own laws, as long as he kept the Welsh, across the border, at Bay.  Among his special privileges was the right to hold his own Castle.  Though the earlier surviving parts o Ludlow Castle today can be traced back to Sir Walter’s son, Roger and then Hugh.  Never-the-less, the family retained the lordship until the 13th century.

For the full account of the castle go to the link at the top.

A Horror Buff’s Great American Roadtrip

 

“Wild, mesmerizing, perversely witty….A Valentine from hell.” –Janet Maslin, New York Times The publication of Joe Hill’s beautifully textured, deliciously scary debut novel Heart-Shaped Box was greeted with the sort of overwhelming critical acclaim that is rare for a work of skin-crawling supernatural terror. It was cited as a Best Book of the Year by Atlanta magazine, the Tampa Tribune, the St. Louis Post Dispatch, and the Village Voice, to name but a few. Award-winning, #1 New York Times bestselling Neil Gaiman of The Sandman, The Graveyard Book, and Anansi Boys fame calls Joe Hill’s story of a jaded rock star haunted by a ghost he purchased on the internet, “relentless, gripping, powerful.” Open this Heart-Shaped Box from two-time Bram Stoker Award-winner Hill if you dare and see what all the well-deserved hoopla is about.Heart-Shaped Box
