Motte and bailey earthworks surmounted by remains of later
castles.
Check that out. That's me when I (Ed) was
14(ish, maybe 13..) years old ! As you can see (by the bunting in the
background) the site was still being excavated ! The wicker basket had
been left behind by a group of "period type" enthusiasts.
I'm not sure what I was doing in there.
This photograph gives a graphic view of the solid security
based around the castle at this time. The site was considered unsafe
for the public and the castle fence also gave the archeologists a base
to work from.
This photograph demonstrates that even in ruins and under
renovation, Stafford Castle can hold it's own when it comes to scenic
sites !
