Pontefract Castle - The Key to the North

Notice Description

Wakefield Council has secured Heritage Lottery Funding with the aim to conserve the heritage of Pontefract Castle, to improve the site's facilities and accessibility, and to promote the Castle and encourage local community involvement in its future.
