There a £2 donation per person it goes in the honesty box inside the tower. Lovely little walk around the grounds. There is a walk that leads into the woods. We however didn’t go that way. Looked easily accessible not wheelchair. The top walk seemed suitable for wheelchair users Nice little find, small and interesting 13th century defensive tower. For a small honesty box/digi payment, you can go inside and move up the tower, which is set over multiple floors. The internal stairs are steep. At the top of the tower, you have access to the surrounding views. There are some short woodland walks around the towers.

It is £4 to enter there is an honesty box you can leave cash? or scan the QR code to pay. It’s a must go see location two hours should be enough to get round it all. The views from the top are amazing. My visit to the 14th-century Preston in Northumberland was like stepping back into medieval times. The tower, once a fortified structure built to defend against border raids, is a well-preserved example of a "pele tower." As you explore its stone staircases and thick walls, you can imagine the lives of those who lived there centuries ago. Inside, you'll find displays on the history of the tower, offering a glimpse into the turbulent past of this border region. The tranquil, rural setting contrasts with its defensive origins, making it a fascinating mix of history and scenery. Great little gem. Nicely laid out with information and great views at the top.
