Colchester Castle
Colchester reached its peak of importance before the Romans came. A city for veterans of the Roman army has been established here. Queen Boudicca totally destroyed it on the ground in AD 61 but the new city quickly rose out of the ashes.
Colchester Castle is close to the walled town center and measures 110 feet by 150 and has much larger ground area of any of England's keep William Conqueror soon after conquering Norman To establish a castle here and keep may have been started following the Danish raid on the town in 1071. Masons are certainly early Norman notes, eg Herringbone works in the fireplace.
The latter builder, the bishop of Gundulf of Rochester, is often believed to be a design because the keep has affinity with the white tower tower in London. However, it is possible that Rouen destroyed keep provided both models. The main similarity is the apsidal projection of the southern end of the eastern wall. Respect a part of it and keep it different in Colchester; it is much more rectangular in the plan, and there are towering towers rather than just buttresses in the corners, so the keep was originally divided by two cross walls
Only the east cross wall is still standing. The chapel shows the place where it was intended, for the only two lower floors to survive, now the squats appear strangely related to that area. A trace of the walled chest reveals that the enclosed parapet covered its keep when one story is high. However, the emergency measures 1083 involved with them aim at the Danish intrusion world as well, and the next level needs to follow soon.
Cockermouth Castle
Cockermouth Castle crowned a coffin between the Derwent and Cocker rivers. The notorious William-De-Fortivus acquired the manor in 1215 and probably built a castle here on an old site, but Henry III had his destruction on his downfall as it survived this episode But most of the current complexes are umflavir, Gilbert who acquired Cockermouth on Gilbert's death in 1381.
The latter, as a Northumberland fort, played a major role in the border struggle of the period. And Black-Douglas looted the unfinished castle Henry IV is also known, while Henri IV is from the familiar Shakespeare. The castle remained in Percy's hand but drifted to collapse. Despite enduring the royal party's siege during the 1648 uprising, the castle was neglected by Parliament as a potentially dangerous base. Around 1800, Percy-Windham of Eglenmont built the Outer-Baley mansion
The castle has a plan of triangles very similar to Carlisle, its peak overlooking the junction of the river. There is no keep. Gilbert de Umfraville has been largely rebuilt and the inner Bailey works while watching the work of William-De Fortibus in part. The well-preserved outer curtain is completely Henry * Percy's. The east front is adjacent to the left by the square flag tower, and now has a large gate and is heading to the right. This huge rectangular structure has Barbican sidewalls in front.
The line of shields on the gateway bears the arm of Henry-Percy and his allies. He was guarded by the arched gate passage by the portcullis and three pairs of doors. Inside Bailey is a Windham mansion built against the curtains. There is a lot of Bailey inside
It is ruined and distorted to some extent.
