    Notes:

    BERKELEY CASTLE --
    THIS BEAUTIFUL AND HISTORIC CASTLE, BEGUN IN 1117, STILL REMAINS THE HOME OF THE FAMOUS FAMILY WHO GAVE THEIR NAME TO NUMEROUS LOCATIONS ALL OVER THE WORLD, NOTABLY, BERKELEY SQUARE IN LONDON, BERKELEY HUNDRED IN VIRGINIA AND BERKELEY
    UNIVERSITY IN CALIFORNIA. SCENE OF THE BRUTAL MURDER OF EDWARD II IN 1327 AND BESIEGED BY CROMWELL'S TROOPS IN 1645, THE CASTLE IS STEEPED IN HISTORY. MANY ROOMS ARE INTERESTING, PARTICULARLY THE GREAT HALL WHERE BARONS OF WESTCOUNTRY MET IN
    1215 BEFORE GOING TO RUNNYMEDE TO FORCE KING JOHN TO PUT HIS SEAL TO THE MAGNA CASTA. TWENTY FOUR GENERATIONS OF BERKELEYS HAVE TRANSFORMED A NORMAN FORTRESS INTO THE LOVELY HOME IT IS TODAY. GUILLAUME FITZOSBERN, A COMMANDER IN THE NORMAN
    ARMY THAT LANDED AT HASTINGS IN 1066, WAS CREATED EARL OF HEREFORD AND CHARGED WITH THE TASK OF GUARDING THE WESTERN DEFENCES OF THE CONQUEROR'S NEW KINGDOM. PART OF HIS DOMAIN WAS THE SAXON MANOR OF BERKELEY AND HE RECOGNISED THE MILITARY
    VALUE OF THE SITE WITH ITS COMMANDING VIEWS OVER THE RIVER SEVERN AND WELSH BORDERS.
    KING EDWARD II WAS COMMITTED THERE IN 1326 FOLLOWING THE STRUGGLE FOR POWER IN ENGLAND. HE WAS HELD IN A DUNGEON DEEP WITHIN THE CASTLE UNTIL BRUTALLY MURDERED BY SIR JOHN MALTRAVERS AND SIR THOMAS GURNEY. IT SEEMS LIKELY THAT LORD BERKELEY
    PLAYED NO PART IN THE KING'S DEATH AS HE WAS NOT IN RESIDENCE AT THE TIME.
