The Evolution of the British Castle - A Short History
Since Greek and Roman times, man has strived to establish some type of a fortification for protection and shelter. Over the pursuing centuries these evolved into a form of military and residential places known as castles. The evolution of the British castle went from wooden palisades used by William the Conquer, to the great stone structures created during the 13th to 15th century. Their demise was brought about by the advent of gunpowder and the technological advancements of the canons and weaponry in use during that era. The defensive capabilities of these great castles were severely diminished, causing them to become obsolete.

The Ghosts of the Tower of London - Pt2
During The Tower of London’s long and torrid past, she has been the home to many gruesome executions. The most grisly execution and thus haunting is that of the 70 year old Countess of Salisbury, the last of the Plantagenets. King Henry VIII had her executed for political reasons. The feisty Countess refused to put her head on the block like a common traitor. When her executioner came after her she ran, but was pursued by him, with his axe in hand hacking at her until he had hewn the Countess to death.
