Abstract:
[SO 089614]. Castle Bank hill, in a loop of the river, was first defended by a stone wall following the contour (almost 1000ft OD) around the flat top. The motte 1 mile N was abandoned about AD 1242 in favour of a new motte and bailey at the NE end of the hill which was captured, burnt and dismantled by the Welsh in 1262. A stronger castle with a central tower and S angle towers with a deep, wide ditch was built at the S end of the hill under a "repair agreement" of 1267, and is described both in a letter of complaint by Llewelyn of 1273/4 and in a Welsh poem of 1432-59. The park lay to the N of the castle, with the earthworks of the borough of c 1300 to the west, near the church and bridge. D F R
