Full information

Location

Seisdon is a picturesque South Staffordshire village which lies within beautiful and unspoilt countryside close to the Shropshire/Staffordshire borders being within easy reach of Bridgnorth, Dudley, Wolverhampton and Stourbridge. The village offers a local convenience store and the property borders the Staffordshire Way - a 92 mile footpath spanning the County.

The name ‘Tinkers Castle’ is believed to have derived from the original Tinkers that occupied a cave as their home on this stunning sandstone escarpment. This now forms the lower level boiler room with the turreted house above.
