Bamburgh Castle, Bamburgh, Northumberland, c1955-c1980. A general view of Bamburgh Castle, seen from the south and showing the south and east sides of the curtain walls, with the keep in the centre. The castle originally dates to the 12th century, but was ruinous by 1704, when the site was aquired by Lord Crewe. It was later made habitable by Dr Sharpe, and later restorations by CJ Ferguson took place between 1894 and 1904. On the right side of the site, is the medieval kitchen, which has a prominent tower on the right side, and to the left of the kitchen is the King's Hall. This section was rebuilt by Ferguson and has an embattled parapet and four buttresses on the exterior of the hall. The keep, a prominent square tower behind the curtain wall, is one of the oldest sections of the castle, dating to the 12th century. It has an embattled parapet and high corner turrets. At the north-western corner, attached to the curtain wall, is the circular library and clock tower, also medieval, with an 18th century clock face. In the distance is the windmill, erected by Dr Sharpe, and some medieval fragments of the curtain wall.
