Wigmore Castle|Longtown Castle|Goodrich Castle[castle adventures]
Hello and welcome back to new castle adventure.
I wasn't lucky with weather as it was rainy and grey day.But that didn't stop me.
Wigmore castle
Remains of extensive Medieval Marches castle. Built shortly after the Norman Conquest of England around 1070, initially as a motte and bailey type fortification, an earthen mound topped by a wooden palisade. Normally constructed to control strategic points and approaches, the castle lies almost halfway between the rivers Teme and Lugg, commanding the wide area between them. Under the ownership of the powerful Mortimer family the original wooden castle was rebuilt in stone in the late 12th century and further added to throughout the 13th century, thus creating one of the most important and striking medieval fortresses in the Welsh Marches. In the years that followed, conflict in the troubled border areas calmed, eventually rendering such fortresses obsolete and when the Mortimer family moved their administrative centre from Wigmore to Ludlow, the castle was effectively redundant. Slighted during the English Civil War, the castle fell into decay and eventual ruin.
Longtown castle
Ruins of a Norman motte and bailey castle. Originally constructed from wood around 1175 by Hugh de Lacy, the castle was perched on top of a man-made motte, or mound, possibly Iron Age in origin. The Laceys, like many other powerful families in the Welsh Marches, were medieval warlords. Early in the following century they rebuilt the castle in stone, with a circular keep erected on the motte for the grand sum of £37. In 1403, Henry IV refortified the defences following attacks led by the Welsh chieftain Owain Glyndŵr; however by the 1450s it seems to have fallen out of use altogether.
Goodrich castle
Well preserved ruins of 13th century castle. Built by Godric of Mappestone following the Norman conquest of England, initially as a motte and bailey fortification. In the middle of the 12th century the original wooden castle was replaced with a stone keep, and was then expanded significantly during the late 13th century. Gifted to the famous William 'Knight's Tale' Marshal, each of his four sons inherited the castle in turn, the last dying childless in 1245. The site of heavy action during the English Civil War, the castle was bombarded into submission by Parliamentary troops using Roaring Meg. The huge mortar is also on display

Croft Castle is a castle, church and garden located at Yarpole, Herefordshire, England. It is a National Trust property which is open to the public.
A building has been on the site from the 11th century and it has from this time been the home of the Croft family and Croft baronets. The Croft family were closely linked to their neighbours the Mortimers of Wigmore and later Ludlow.
The Battle of Mortimer's Cross, enacted in this video, took place on Croft lands nearby in 1461.

The Day the Trees froze! Hereford UK - Dec 2010 pt1
The month was exceptionally cold and it turned out to be the coldest December since 1890 for some parts of the UK. This film takes us on a journey around the Castle Green in Hereford and along the River Wye where you will see the branches and leaves covered in frost. The river is freezing over and you can feel the coldness and so this film is especially nice to watch if you drink a cup of hot chocolate at the same time! Enjoy!
