Bagot goat at Bagot's Castle

Yesterday, having lived around here for the best part of 25 years, I discovered that there is a ruined castle not far away - Bagot's Castle, in Baginton near Coventry. The castle itself is in a fairly scenic location, though there is very little left of it now - more or less a footprint of the original 14th Century building. However they have their own small herd of Bagot goats. It seems from what I've read that the name is coincidental, as the goats were bred in another part of the country.
Apparently they have a good showing of bluebells each year, and that is expected in another week or so, so a return visit seems like a good idea.
