Bolsover Castle
History
Bolsover Castle is a castle in Bolsover, Derbyshire, England.
It was built by the Peverel family in the 12th century and became Crown property in 1155 when the third William Peverel fled into exile. A stone keep was built around 1173, surrounded by a curtain wall which was eventually breached in 1216 during the reign of King John. It was then allowed to deteriorate into a ruin. Surviving fragments of the curtain wall were later incorporated in a wall walk that can be seen in the castle garden.
