Image description

The chapel dates to c1080, and is the oldest part of the castle to survive intact. It is in the lowest level of the northern range, and can be mistaken for an undercroft. There is an aisled nave of four bays, with six circular columns dividing the space. Each column has decorative carvings, possibly barbaric and supports groined vaults. The castle was first established in 1072 by William the Conquerer, and the keep and north range dates to 1099-1128 and is believed to be by Flambard.
