YORK

All Photographs displayed in this website are Copyright of Geoff Walker Huddersfield UK 2021

Clifford’s Tower - York Clifford’s Tower is the last remaining part of one of the two castles built in York in 1068 by William the Conqueror. Originally part of York Castle on the West side of the River Ouse, opposite Baile Hill Castle on the East, the two castles controlled the entrance into the City via the water. The original structure, known as the ‘King’s Tower’ was on a lower mound of earth and was made of wood. After being burnt down in 1190 to try and remove all memory of the Massacre of the Jews the tower was then rebuilt on a higher mound of earth at great expense before being destroyed by a gale in 1245. It was then ordered to be rebuilt in stone in the late 13th Century which produced the larger (15m x 61m) quatrafoil design we have today.
