Description: | An outline view in ink of part of the inside of Dunstanburgh Castle near Dunstan in Northumberland. Its ruins are relatively sparse compared to Northumberland's other castles, but it is more modern than its condition suggests. It was built by Earl Thomas of Lancaster in the 14th century on the site of former Roman and Iron Age settlements, and was altered by John of Gaunt in 1380-4, who added the inner bailey. It later became a Lancastrian stronghold during the War of the Roses. | License: | http://www.bl.uk/services/copy/permission.html | Rights holder: | British Library | Source: | Collect Britain | Creator: | Grimm, Samuel Hieronymus | Identifier: | http://www.collectbritain.co.uk/personal... | Language: | en-GB | Go to resource |
