Ruin Of Corfe Castle

Today I'm publishing a couple of images from a recent visit to Corfe Castle in Dorset, which dates back to William I.

The Castle was later used as a Royalist (or Cavalier) stronghold in the 1642-1651 Civil War. Following the defeat of the Cavaliers by the Roundheads, Parliament ordered the destruction of most of the Royalist bases, including Corfe Castle.
