Old Sarum Castle 13.08.18 - a photo on Flickriver

            Old Sarum castle might be in ruins, but there's still plenty to discover. The Norman motte and bailey castle was one of the first to be built after the conquest of 1066, and Old Sarum was a powerful site for royalty and the church for the next 150 years.

Old Sarum is one of the most enthralling and historically important sites in southern England. Uniquely, it combines a medieval royal castle and cathedral within an Iron Age fortification, and for 150 years was a major centre of both secular and ecclesiastical government.

Neither castle nor cathedral was occupied for long – in 1226 the cathedral was moved to nearby Salisbury, although the castle remained an administrative centre into the 14th century. Old Sarum lived on, however, as a notorious ‘rotten borough’ which continued to elect members of Parliament until 1832.
