Hedingham Castle - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia (509 words) |
 | Hedingham Castle in Essex, England (51°59′33″N, 0°36′04″E) dates from shortly after the Norman Conquest of 1066. |
| The castle was only besieged twice, in 1216 and 1217, during the dispute between King John and the barons. |
| The keep is the only mediaeval element of the castle to have survived, the hall, drawbridge and outbuildings all having been replaced during the Tudor period by structures which—with the exception of a fine late 15th century brick bridge—have now also been lost. |
