    Exeter Castle

    In the Northernhay Gardens, at the end of Castle St, you can skirt the tree-fringed ruins of the city's 11th-century castle (but not go inside). The gatehouse is worth searching out - it has a plaque commemorating three Devon women who were tried here for witchcraft in 1685 and became the last in the country to be hanged for the crime.
