Totnes Castle: A Medieval Fortification Overlooking the Devon Town This evocative photograph by Peter Ashley, titled K981658, captures the majestic presence of Totnes Castle in Devon, England. Dating back to the Norman Conquest, this historic fortification stands proudly overlooking the picturesque town of Totnes. The castle, a testament to medieval engineering, was built in the late 11th century by the Normans to protect the town and its strategic location on the River Dart. The ruins of the castle, with its distinctive motte and bailey design, are a reminder of a bygone era. The motte, a large conical mound, was once topped with a timber keep, while the bailey, a lower enclosure, housed residential and administrative buildings. The view along the street towards the castle, as depicted in this photograph, offers a glimpse into the past. The castle's imposing walls, with their intricate defensive features, loom large over the town, while the modern buildings in the foreground provide a stark contrast to the ancient fortification. Totnes Castle has played an important role in the history of Devon and England. It has served as a royal residence, a garrison, and a prison, among other things. Today, it is a popular tourist attraction and a reminder of the rich history and heritage of the region. The photograph by Peter Ashley, taken from the collection of Historic England, captures the essence of Totnes Castle and its enduring allure. The image invites us to imagine the stories and secrets that lie within its walls, and to appreciate the beauty and history of this remarkable medieval fortification.
