Only fragments remain of
this once large and important castle; the mote in the north east corner
stands 45 feet high and the remains of a complicated arrangement of inner
and outer moats can still be seen. William the Conqueror finally accepted
the surrender of the Saxons at Berkhamsted, after his defeat of King Harold
at Hastings. |
