    Built in 1385 possibly to protect the area against a French invasion, though probably also for show, Bodiam is a water castle surrounded on all four sides by a moat filled with large Koi. Bodiam is mostly a ruin on the inside thanks to the English Civil War, and was abandoned until the 1920's when it was given to the National Trust.
