Description

Richmond Castle, Richmond, North Yorkshire

Breathtakingly sited on a rocky promontory above the River Swale, the great castle of Richmond is among the oldest Norman stone fortress in Britain, begun in the decades after the conquest. The towering keep, over 30 metres (100 feet) high and remarkably complete within, was added during the reign of Henry II in the 1170s : its roof provides splendid views over the clustered houses of the pretty market town of Richmond.
