EDITORS COMMENTS
Immerse yourself in the rich history of medieval England as you behold the captivating image of Restormel Castle in Cornwall. This evocative reconstruction drawing, created by Terry Ball of the English Heritage Graphics Team, transports us back in time to the 14th century. Restormel Castle, a motte and bailey fortification, stands proudly amidst the lush greenery of its surrounding landscape. The castle's defensive structure, a testament to the engineering prowess of the medieval period, is brought to life through intricate detail and meticulous shading. The motte, a conical mound of earth and rubble, rises majestically at the centre, crowned with the ruins of a keep that once housed the castle's lord and his family. The bailey, a large open area encircled by a defensive wall, lies at the base of the motte. It was here that the castle's inhabitants would have lived, worked, and sought refuge. The drawing reveals the various structures that would have populated the bailey, including barracks, workshops, and living quarters. The castle's moat, filled with water, encircles the entire complex, providing an additional layer of defence against potential attackers. The drawbridge, raised in this image, would have been lowered to allow access to the castle when necessary. Restormel Castle, a fascinating glimpse into England's medieval past, continues to captivate visitors with its impressive architecture and rich history. This stunning reconstruction drawing by Terry Ball offers a unique perspective, allowing us to appreciate the castle's defensive features and the daily life of its inhabitants.
