So the last Northumbrian castle I have is Bamburgh. Oh, this has a long and complicated history and I don't know most of it. It has a Norman keep though.

Also, Thomas Malory, in "Le Morte d'Arthur" says of Lancelot's castle Joyous Gard: "Some men say it was Alnwick, and some men say it was Bamborough."

You just never know what you’re going to see driving along B roads.

Made a quick stop in the village of #Bamburgh, #Northumberland, #England on the way back to Scotland over six years ago after venturing down as far south as Alnwick. Bamburgh Castle was what I'd always imagined a #medieval #castle would be: imposing. Didn't get to check out the inside because we were short on time but I'm hoping to be back there again someday. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bamburgh_Castle
