The oldest parts of the ruins date from the 11th century, although there is evidence of earlier fortification predating the Norman Conquest. The castle was a royal fortress until it was sold during the reign of Elizabeth I. From A Voyage Around Great Britain Undertaken between the Years 1814 and 1825 by William Daniell.
