Framlingham Castle
Framlingham Castle is a medieval curtain-walled castle in Framlingham, Suffolk, notable for its lack of a central keep and its ring of mural towers. The surviving stone curtain and towers enclose an Inner Court, with an adjacent Lower Court and larger timber-defended Bailey; artificial meres and extensive parkland lie beside it. The site is today an English Heritage property and a protected scheduled monument.

Partial ruin
As it stood in 1500
The shape it held in its prime.
A broad, high stone curtain wall pierced by a sequence of tall, rectangular mural towers forms a continuous defended rectangle with no central keep; crenellated parapets and arrow slits punctuate the wall. The castle sits on a raised grassy mound with water of a mere in the foreground reflecting the pale-buff stone. Tower profiles are blocky and vertical, rooflines low or absent, and the outer face shows coursed medieval masonry with occasional brick repair bands.
