Wentworth Castle

Description

Wentworth Castle is now managed by a partnership between the National Trust, Barnsley Council and Northern College.  They have given us permission to orienteer, including in the gardens, unlike our previous attempt to use the area.  The parkland is largely open, with several areas of woodland.  The gardens include an area of formal planting and a large area of woodland including the ruined fake castle: Stainborough Castle.

The map has been fully updated in 2021, needing a detailed survey of the garden area.  The previous map was surveyed and drawn for the British Schools by Marcus Pinker in 2012, but never used
