About Fencing in Clitheroe
Clitheroe in Lancashire is dominated by its Norman castle, built in 1186 by Robert de Lacy atop an isolated limestone crag, though the site may have held an earlier fortification since 1102, and it later served as the seat of the ancient Lords of Bowland before passing to the Crown in 1399. The castle played a role in the Wars of the Roses, when Edward IV spent £400 improving its defences and it was used to imprison his rival, the deposed Henry VI, after his capture in Lancashire in 1464. Royalist forces held Clitheroe Castle during the Civil War until 1644, and Parliament later ordered it deliberately ruined in 1649 to prevent future military use, leaving only the keep, said to be the second smallest in England, still standing today.
