If you want to see the fortress, then you will not see it here, but only see the ruins, in fact, only one wall, which contains signs of human intervention in order to create a tourist attraction from the place. The admission is free, therefore it costs nothing to see and pay respect for the effort put into preserving this object.

Castle is a stretch. Apparently it got restored in 2014. Still a fence round it and not much apart from big walls.

Heavily ruined castle, of which only the core of the walls and two stories of the keep remain. Previously open to visitors during Saffron Walden Museum opening hours, but fenced off for repairs when I visited in spring 2023.
