XIII.—Notes on the Keep, the Roman Pharos, and the Shafts at the Shot Yard Battery, Dover Castle
Published online by Cambridge University Press: 25 January 2012
Extract
Traditionally the erection of the Keep of Dover Castle is ascribed to Bishop Gundulf, the brother-in-law of William the Conqueror; but, while the absence of ornaments and the severe simplicity of the interior mark its early character, the style of the exterior, in which the flat pilaster, so typical of the early Norman castle, has developed into the protruding square turret, seems to denote a later date.
