Ludlow Castle
Ludlow Castle is a medieval stone castle on a promontory above the River Teme in Ludlow, Shropshire. The site comprises an inner bailey with a Great Tower, domestic ranges (Great Hall, Solar and Great Chamber), a rare circular chapel, and a larger outer bailey linked to the town by curtain walls and gatehouses.

As it stood in 1634
The shape it held in its prime.
A compact castle massed on a grassy promontory above the River Teme: a tall square Great Tower rises from the inner bailey surrounded by continuous curtain walls punctuated by both rectangular and rounded mural towers. Stone is weathered grey-brown sandstone; rooflines in the inner bailey include pitched roofs over domestic ranges while battlemented parapets cap the defensive walls. The outer bailey opens to the town to the east, and a rock-cut ditch separates inner and outer enclosures; the circular chapel sits within the inner ward.
