Building a Family: William Cavendish, First Duke of Newcastle, and the Construction of Bolsover and Nottingham Castles
Chap 5 10/12/04 12:20 pm Page 233 Building a Family: William Cavendish, First Duke of Newcastle, and the Construction of Bolsover and Nottingham Castles Introduction Bolsover Castle, overlooking the Doe Lea valley in Derbyshire, and Nottingham Castle, overlooking its city, are among the most dramatic of seventeenth- century great houses. This article proposes an explanation for the re-building of these two medieval castles that is based upon the social circumstances of the family and household responsible for the work. Separated by sixty years, the two buildings appear to be very different yet share the same remarkable patron. William Cavendish (1593–1676) became Viscount Mansfield, then Earl, Mar- quis and finally Duke of Newcastle-upon-Tyne.1 He is celebrated for his extrav- agant entertainments for Charles I in 1633 and 1634 and his governorship of Prince Charles, the future Charles II. In 1618, he married a local heiress, Elizabeth Bassett, who became the mother of his children before dying in 1643. William was commander of the king’s army in the north during the Civil War and went into exile for fifteen years after losing the battle of Marston Moor in 1644. His second marriage took place in Paris in 1645, to Margaret Lucas, lady in waiting to Henrietta Maria and also a prolific writer.2 He lived in Antwerp, where he wrote his famous book on horsemanship, until 1660. At the Restoration, he returned to live mainly at his family home at Welbeck Abbey in Nottinghamshire until his death in 1676. The Little Castle at Bolsover was begun by William’s father Charles Cavendish (1553–1617) and William himself added interior decoration and further buildings on the site.

It can be read as a fast-based escape story or with older children you could discuss some of the darker criminal themes. Check out page 4 to see if you find the word used by a character inappropriate; you may want to blank it out depending on the age of your child. Reading: The Walled City click here Jin hides under the radar, afraid the wild street gangs will discover her biggest secret: Jin passes as a boy to stay safe. Still, every chance she gets, she searches for her lost sister.... In this innovative and adrenaline-fueled novel, they all come together in a desperate attempt to escape a lawless labyrinth before the clock runs out. Context Kowloon Walled City was a largely ungoverned, densely populated settlement in Kowloon City in Hong Kong. Originally a Chinese military fort, the Walled City became a district after the New Territories were leased to Britain by China in 1898. Its population increased dramatically following the Japanese occupation of Hong Kong during World War II. By 1990, the walled city contained 50,000 residents within its 2.6-hectare (6.4-acre) borders.
