Summary edit
| Description |
English: Danes Castle, Exeter This circular structure was thought to be the remains of a castle built by the Danes when they had Exeter under siege in 1003. In 1993 the castle was found to have been built by King Stephen in 1136. For more information, see David Cornforths site at http://www.exetermemories.co.uk/EM/_places/danes.php , from which this information is taken.
In spite of the fact that it owes its origins to the civil war of 1136-47, the earthwork still bears the name "Danes Castle". Its shape is handily picked out by the partly-melted snow that has fallen the previous day. |
