Arundel Castle - the Keep and Norman Gateway, 1845. View of the medieval castle at Arundel in West Sussex. 'We are happy to learn that his Grace the Duke of Norfolk has just directed that this truly magnificent "ancestral home" be opened to the public, for inspection, on two days in the week of the present season; an announcement which will be very gratifying to tourists...The Keep, the above Gateway, with some of the walls, are all that remain of the ancient Castle, if we except the Barbican, or Bevis's Tower - a Norman addition, now an ivy-mantled ruin. The Keep, too, is nearly covered with massive foliage. It has been long tenanted by some owls of large size and beautiful plumage, sent over from America as presents to the eleventh Duke. They are especial favourites with visitors'. From "Illustrated London News", 1845, Vol VII.
