    Location and
    brief
    description
    Bodiam Castle is located
    in East sussex, england. It
    was built in 1385 by Sir
    Edward Dallingridge, a
    former knight of Edward
    III, supposedly at the
    request of Richard II in
    order to defend the
    surrounding area from
    French invasion. However,
    recent research suggests
    that the castle was built
    more for show than as an
    effective defence.
    Description
    • The castle is completely surrounded by a Moat with
    approaches from the north and south.
    • The castle itself is rectangular in shape, being longer
    in the north-south, and has large round towers at all
    of the four corners, and a square tower defending the
    centre of each side.
    • The castle well is located in one of the corner towers,
    the chapel in another
    • Most of the castle interior was destroyed during the
    English Civil War.
    • The north side of the castle has the gatehouse and
    bridge. The turret on the left contains the chapel.
    “Why it was built
    • It was built at an evolutionary stage when
    the nobility were looking for more
    comfortable, agreeable places to live that
    offered them security, but also
    represented an outward show of their
    wealth and rank.
    • Also it was more of a defends to the many
    things that the great war had to offer
    More of its history
