Hedingham Castle
In “The Completely Made-Up Adventures of Dick Turpin,” Dick Turpin (Noel Fielding) sets out on a journey of wildly absurd escapades when he’s made the reluctant leader of a band of outlaws. Together with his gang of lovable rogues, Turpin rides the highs and lows of his new endeavours, including a brush with celebrity, all whilst trying to escape the clutches of the thief-taker.
Look carefully and you may spot Hedingham Castle as the setting for the ‘mad’ laboratory scene.
An iconic landmark of Essex, Hedingham Castle in Halstead was built over 900 years ago and is known to be the best preserved Norman keep in England, alongside the motte and bailey castle. Still inhabited by descendants of the De Veres, the Earls of Oxford, who built the castle around 1100, the surroundings of gardens, charming woodland and a stunning lake make it a beautiful place to explore all year round. Their events programme has something for everyone, from exciting jousts to vintage fairs and outdoor cinema. Hedingham Castle is known for being one of the county’s most romantic wedding venues, and a peaceful place for a weekend away with their accommodation options.
