The Bulletin  

“The Bulletin,” Vol. 70 —No. 3603  

Wednesday, March 2, 1949  

Price 6d.  

Registered at the General Post Office, Sydney, N.S.W., Australia, for Transmission by Post as Newspaper.  

seppelts  

■pIGHT hundred years ago the Normans  

introduced into Britain style of  

castle consisting of massive central  

structure, or keep, set on mound en-  

circled with defensive wall. At intervals  

along the wall look-out towers were con-  

structed to guard against surprise attacks  

and the wall itself was surrounded by  

moat.  

The earliest of the Norman castles were  

made of wood and the wall was only  

wooden palisade. But within two hundred  

years of the Norman conquest (1066)  

stone castles were being built and many of  

the strongholds standing today have  

features dating back to that time.  

Visitors to the Peak District in England  

can view fine example of this type of  

castle near the interesting village of  

Castleton, where Peveril Castle stands on  

the summit of splendid limestone crag.  

According to Domesday Book the site of  

this castle belonged, before the Norman  

conquest, to two Saxons, Gernebern and  

Hundinc.  

In the reign of King Edward the Con-  

fessor (1042-1066) the settlement was  

valued at 40 shillings and in 1086 its  

value had increased to 50 shillings, being  

known as William Peveril’s Castle.  

William Peveril had been given command  

of Nottingham Castle in 1068 by William  

the Conqueror, who held him in high  

esteem and had granted him numerous  

lordships in Derbyshire. Upon his death,  

about 1114, his possessions passed to his  

son William, who was disinherited in  

1155 for poisoning the Earl of Chester,  

and his estates were forfeited to the  

Crown, The King, Henry 11, stayed in  

Peveril Castle between 1157 and 1164 and  

it was here that he received the submission  

of Malcolm IV, King of Scotland. In  

1235 Henry 111 stayed at the castle and  

1254 it was handed over to Eleanor of  

Castile as part of her dowry. Ten years  

later the castle was granted to Simon de  

Montfort, Earl of Leicester, advocate of  

the liberties of the people and founder of  

the English Parliament.  

In the years following, Peveril was in  

the possession of Edward I, Edward 11,  

the Earl of Surrey, Queen Isabella, Queen  

Philippa, Edward 111, and John of Gaunt,  

who received it in exchange for the  

Earldom of Richmond. In this manner  

it came to form part of the Duchy of  

Lancaster, being united to the possession  

of the Crown at the accession of Henry JV  

in 1399, In 1932 the Duchy handed over  

the ruins of Peveril Castle to H.M. Office  

of Works, by whom it is now administered.  

MIGHTY PEVERIL, AN EARLY NORMAN CASTLE.
