Viewed from inside the city walls near Rheims Way. Castle Street can be seen on the right. The castle was largely built in the reign of Henry I and by the 13th century had become the county gaol. In the 19th century it was used by a gas company as a storage centre for gas, which explains why the street to the north of the ruins is called Gas Street. It is now owned by the local authority.

Built in the 11th & 12th centuries. This is all that remains of the Great Hall & residential quarters.
