Stokesay Castle Description

Romantic Stokesay Castle (22mi/35km south of Shrewsbury) was built in the 12th C for the Norman Say family. In 1280 the wealthy wool merchant Lawrence of Ludlow bought the estate and had it fortified at the behest of Edward I in 1296. Manor House is now one of the best-maintained fortified 13th C constructions of its type.
