HISTORY LESSON 1

The town of Hadleigh was given to Hubert de Burgh in 1215 by King John.

Hubert had distinguished himself in Royal service in the year 1204 when he tried to defend the great stronghold of Chinon in Poitou from a French army.

He spent several years as a prisoner but upon his return to he continued to support and fight for the King.

When some other Lords invited Prince Louis of France to come to England to take the throne, Hubert successfully defended Dover Castle from their army.

Upon the death of King John in October 1216, Hubert transferred his loyalty to the new King, 9 year old Henry III.

At the Battle of Sandwich (1217) he defeated a French Naval force who wanted to take the throne from Henry and give it to Prince Louis of France.

His victory was the key to ending the war and his success led to further rewards - including being raised to in 1227 - and it was then that Hubert built Hadleigh Castle.

However, in 1239 he quarrelled with Henry III and had his lands taken away. Hadleigh Castle was taken into Royal ownership and it was neglected until the fourteenth century.

In 1273 the castle passed into the hands of Edward I's wife, Queen Eleanor, when it was recorded as being in a poor state. This was because it was built on a soft clay surface and had begun to fall down. In 1311, Edward II started to repair the castle and he spent many of his later years there.

When Edward III died in 1377, it was owned by a few more people - (wife of Edward IV), (first wife of Henry VIII), (fourth wife of Henry VIII) and (sixth wife of Henry VIII).

However by the mid-sixteenth century the castle was a ruin and was sold to be used for building supplies.
