DARTMOUTH CASTLE—“BULWARKED ROUND AND ARMED WITH RISING TOWERS."  

DARTMOUTH CASTLE consists of square and round tower dating  

from the fifteenth century. Adjoining are three platforms of guns, the  

little church of St. Petrox and the ruins of more ancient castle, the whole  

being enclosed by wall and ditch. The hill which rises behind to height  

of 300 feet is crowned by the remains of another fort, Fort Ridley, which is  

mentioned by Fairfax in his dispatch to the Parliament under the name of  

“Gallant’s Bower.” The round tower of the castle was in recent years used  

as magazine, but in former days it held stout chain, which was stretched  

each night during time of war to the Castle of Kingwear on the opposite  

side of the estuary of the River Dart.  

Dartmouth town lies half mile inside the estuary, and its charter began  

in 1226 when granted by Henry 111 to Edward de Gloucester. By 1342 it was  

port of great consequence, as it furnished no less than thirty-one ships to the  

Plantagenet fleet for the siege of Calais, larger quota than was supplied by  

any other town in the kingdom, excepting Fowey and Yarmouth. It was the  

most famous of all the nurseries of Devonian seamen. Chaucer’s typical  

shipmen in The Canterbury Tales came from Dartmouth.  

It is recorded that fleet of crusaders, under Coeur de Lion, assembled  

in Dartmouth Harbor in 1190. In 1377 the town was destroyed by the  

French, who swept the south-west coast from the Isle of Wight to Plymouth.  

In retaliation, Dartmouth combined with Plymouth in sending out fleet  

which ravaged the coast of France, burning and sinking forty enemy ships.  

In 1404 the French sought revenge, but their expedition against Dartmouth  

was defeated, with the loss of 400 killed and 200 prisoners.  

During the Wars of the Roses, the Lancastrian party used Dartmouth as  

port. In the Great Rebellion, the town declared for the Parliament, and in  

1643, after month’s siege, it was taken by Prince Maurice. The Royalists,  

however, after an interval of three years, were attacked try Fairfax, who  

carried the place by storm in January, 1646, in spite of the number of fortified  

towers and ports with which he had to contend.
