I visited this attractive, lived-in castle in 1996. This castle has a very
grim history . Edward II (the homosexual son of Edward Longshanks in the
movie "Braveheart") was brutally murdered/executed in the
dungeon. The castle is intact, except for a large gap in the wall that
Cromwell (who destroyed most of the old private baronial castles in
England) had done as a penalty. The founders of Berkely, California are, I
believe, descended from these Berkelys. |
