  • The History of Kenilworth Castle 12Th Century
    THE HISTORY OF KENILWORTH CASTLE 12TH CENTURY - When and why people first created the site Kenilworth Castle was founded in the early 1120s by Geoffrey de Clinton, Lord Chamberlain and treasurer to Henry I Clinton was a local rival to Roger de Beaumont, the Earl of Warwick and owner of the neighbouring Warwick Castle, and the king made Clinton the sheriff in Warwickshire to act as a counterbalance to Beaumont's power. Henry I’s son had died and so he needed to show that he was powerful even though he did not have an heir The castle's original form is uncertain. It has been suggested that it consisted of a motte, an earthen mound surmounted by wooden buildings; however, the stone great tower may have been part of the original design. Henry II (Henry I’s grandson)succeeded to the throne at the end of a Civil war that lasted from 1135 to 1154 but during the revolt of 1173–74 he faced a significant uprising led by his son, Henry, backed by the French crown. The conflict spread across England and Kenilworth was garrisoned by Henry II's forces; By this point Kenilworth Castle consisted of the great keep, the inner bailey wall, a basic causeway across the smaller lake that preceded the creation of the Great Mere, and the local chase for hunting. De Clinton’s Keep. Windows were added much later, these would have been arrow slits and fishtail arrow slits in the original keep. THE HISTORY OF KENILWORTH CASTLE 13TH CENTURY – King John - Henry's successor, Richard I, paid relatively little attention to Kenilworth, but under King John significant building resumed at the castle.
