## Description

Hurst Castle UK, located in Lymington, is an iconic brand steeped in history and offering a range of products and services. Since 1956, Hurst Castle has been under the care of English Heritage, showcasing its rich military past. Originally built as a fixed defence against guided missiles, the castle eventually became obsolete. In 1984, local businessman Sean Crane and his wife Mary established Hurst Ferries, now known as Hurst Marine, to provide a regular ferry service from Keyhaven to the castle. Sean's strong family ties to the castle, with his father serving as the Castle Keeper and his uncle as the Lighthouse Keeper, fueled his determination to keep the castle open when English Heritage considered closing its doors in 1993. Today, Hurst Marine manages the castle alongside English Heritage, with Sean's son, Jason, leading the day-to-day operations. Extensive conservation work has been undertaken over the past half century, ensuring the castle's preservation. Hurst Castle has also been named to the prestigious 2022 World Monuments Watch, signifying its global significance and the urgent need for its preservation. Visit Hurst Castle to immerse yourself in its fascinating historical legacy and witness the ongoing efforts to protect this cherished heritage site.
