Build your own castle

Last year we were lucky enough to get our hands on the Junior Tradesman First House. We liked it a lot so it’s a pleasure to report that Hippychick has added to its property portfolio.

The new Junior Tradesman Castle is priced around £24.99 and follows the same principle – only this time you’re building a mighty castle stronghold complete with towers, turrets and portcullises.

The ground plan not only shows you where everything needs to stand, it also has pathways printed on, perhaps showing the way for an invading army to attack the castle?

It’ll be a fruitless mission, we fear, with castle walls as strong as this. Made with real bricks and mortar the Junior Tradesman Castle would make a great project for a dull winter’s day, and you can even break it down again easily to re-build later (but don’t tell the invading army about that).
