The artist behind this masterpiece is CM Dixon, who beautifully captures the essence of this medieval fortress built within a former Roman fort. Dating back to the late 11th century, Portchester Castle was initially a baronial stronghold before coming under royal control in 1154. Throughout history, this castle has witnessed significant events and played a crucial role in English heritage.
