The entrance to Appleby castle
The Normans probably recognised the advantages of overlooking an important river crossing point at Appleby and built the defensive stone keep of Appleby castle on a high vantage point. The castle was taken over by the Clifford family in the 13th centuty and held it for the next 400 years. The castle is now in private ownership.
