Légende
Nottingham Castle, Nottinghamshire, 1895. A castle has been sited on this rocky outcrop overlooking Nottingham since Norman times. The present castle mansion was built by Henry Cavendish, 2nd Duke of Newcastle, after the restoration of Charles II (the previous castle had been razed to the ground after the Civil War). In 1831 it too was set on fire when the residents of Nottingham's notorious slums rioted. The building remained derelict until it was restored in 1878, since when it has housed a museum.
