Winkies Castle

History comes alive at Winkies
Discover our history and heritage at Winkies Castle Folk Museum. Founded by local cobbler Jack Anderson in 1975, Winkies Castle houses many unique hands-on artefacts from hundreds of years of Marskes history.

The entrance hall features a time line panel that lists every significant local event back to the 4th Century Roman Signal Station on Huntcliffe.

Re-dressed period rooms and a fascinating audio-visual presentation informs visitors of Marskes history and the friendly and knowledgeable staff are happy to answer any questions on the area and its heritage.
