Berkeley Castle
Berkeley Castle is a Norman-origin castle in the town of Berkeley, Gloucestershire, continuously occupied and owned by the Berkeley family since the 12th century. Much of the visible fabric dates from 12th- and 14th-century building campaigns, and the site retains a shell keep, curtain walls, towers and extensive domestic interiors open to visitors.

As it stood in 1360
The shape it held in its prime.
Large red-brown sandstone castle set on a raised terrace above a broad lawn, dominated by a circular shell keep and crenellated curtain wall with rectangular towers and a prominent multi-chimneyed residential block. Stone retaining terraces and gardens rise to the base of the walls; the roofline is a mix of battlements and pitched roofs behind parapets. At its prime the walls and keep were complete, with gatehouse access, towered angles and domestic ranges adjoining the inner bailey.
