Norham Castle, Northumberland. On the Scottish/English border. It's has changed hands a few times.

It was built for a bishop, I believe. Yes. a Bishop of Durham in the early 12th century. It was apparently besieged 13 times. Also, it's very cool.

Norham Castle, a mighty stronghold located on a rocky bluff on the south bank of the River Tweed, which put it on the English side of the border with Scotland. For centuries it was said to be "the most dangerous place in England". More pics and info: undiscoveredscotland.co.uk/ber
