Beverston Castle, Medieval stone fortress in Beverston, England
The castle structure includes a combination of manor house, medieval ruins, small buildings, and extensive gardens spread across the property.
Maurice de Gaunt established the castle in 1229, initially constructing it in a pentagonal layout before a quadrangular stronghold was added in the 14th century.
The castle's courtyard served as a central location for wool production, where 5000 Cotswold sheep were sheared in 1336, reflecting the region's textile industry.
The property encompasses a seven-bedroom manor house, four estate cottages, and 693 acres of land available for exploration and visits.
The castle received permission from King Henry III in 1229 to stand perpetually, following an initial construction without royal authorization.
