Castles

I have decided to put the castles I have visited here on my website.

Pickering

What a forgotten gem this is! Built as a motte and bailey by King William it is still awesome and, so far as I can discover was so strong as to remain a royal castle until it evolved into a hunting lodge. The Motte is built on a stone and the wood replaced by stone.

This first one is a reconstruction of the castle as it was in its heyday.

Middleham

This is Middleham- Richard III’s castle and a wonderful castle and town to visit!

Bamburgh

Dunstanburgh

Warkworth

Barnard Castle

Maps

The readers of my audio books have asked me for maps. As you will appreciate, this will take time. I have begun with  St Crispin’s Day  (Struggle for a Crown series).

Northern France

The Battle of Agincourt

The Battle for France

France in the early 15th Century

Battle of Vernuil

The Battle of Waterloo

Tudor Warrior

This is eclectic but as I have just finished Tudor Warrior (due out in 2022) I will put the maps up already. Believe me with more than 156 novels finding what you need can be a night mare.

The borders 1497

England in 1497

France 1496
