Bridgnorth Castle was founded in 1101-1102 by Robert de Belleme, Earl of Shrewsbury. It was a mighty fortress in its heyday but fell into a state of disrepair by 1281 and was nearly ruined by the time of Henry VIII's reign. In 1646, the castle was surrendered to Parliamentary troops following a three-week siege. The fortress was stripped and the walls were systematically mined and blown up. All that remains of the castle today is the severely listing tower keep. Bridgnorth Castle is a scheduled monument.
