Leeds castle
Leeds Castle rises gently from the water of its urrounding lake. The lake is an artificial one made by blocking the Len river. In that year, King Stephen took it from Matilda's supporters, so the castle existed in 1139.
Two islands suggesting the origin of Mott and Bailey, and the lake itself existed by 1272. In terms of masonry, however, the castle is essentially the work of Edward I, with additions by the beautification of Henry VIII and many nineteenth centuries. Around the entrance, the lake diminishes into a narrow moat.
Near the moat there were unique Barbican ruins, and there were three gateways as the three roads converged. The gatehouse is not a date, but a squat tower in all spirits, Edwardian. It has a break for drawbridges and later trains of machicolations above the entrance.
"Zoom", "Zooze", "Zooze", "Zooze", "Zooze", "Zooze", "Zooze" Leeds may have been a concentric castle, as the foundation of the earlier curtains that surround a slightly smaller area came to light, but a proof that the two walls stood at the same time Tower of Maiden, Henry VIII An additional one of the neo-Gothic homes built by the Fenenes Wykeham-Martin in the 1820s: two independent settlements in Bailey that occupy the site of a luxurious medieval apartment.
Behind the mansion, a stone corridor that replaces the wooden causeway and drawbridge is connected to the small island's mainland. It is known as Gloriette. This unique, D-shaped structure is built around a small patio in the shell keeping way. Its lower part, including the tall pedestal rising straight from the water, is the work of Edward-I.
Launceston Castle
The Launceston Castle's Keep dominates the town and the surrounding countryside. Most Saxon burghs force the castle within a few years of Norman Conquest, and the castle of "Dunhevet" is recorded in the book of Domesday. At that time, it was held by William Conqueror's half brother Robert.
Initially, the castle passes through various hands, and only Norman Mason is the shell keeps the motto. At 1227 Henry III gave his brother Richard Earlm of Cornwall, and he must be responsible for most of the existing masonry. Eventually, the castle fell into a common courtesy of being used as a court for the duchy and gaol, and the defense collapsed. By the end of the civil war it was a complete ruin while it changed hands several times.
Earl Richard built a stone wall on Bailey Lampert, but only the lower course survives. It was a curtain of strange plains for the 13th century without towers, except for the drums lined between the south gates. The latter is still quite impressive, and the simple gate tower at the far end of Bailey has survived the destruction. Otherwise it is a reserve to command our attention.
The only approach is controlled by its legs by a destructive tower, through the curtain stretch, ascending the side of the motto. Launceston's unique "triple crown" keep is the result of three phases-stone reflections around the top of the motto, late Norman shell keeping up with cornwall This arrangement is an early example of a concentric plan It is clear from the joint holes in the wall that the narrow space between the tower and the shell is on the roof.
