Reigate Castle Grounds are made up of paths, woodland and gardens near the town centre, where Reigate's Norman castle once stood. William de Warenne, Earl of Surrey, founded the castle in 1088, but it was in ruins by 1441. Today, a grassy plateau is bordered with herbaceous flowerbeds, planted with roses and perennials. In its centre, a stone pyramid covers an underground passage, and nearby there's a mock medieval gateway of 1777.
