Eccleshall Castle

Eccleshall Castle is a building in England originally built in the 13th century.

Cromwell's soldiers demolished most of it during the Civil War. Only one unusual nine-sided tower survives, together with the moat walls.

Anjou, wife of Henry VI, took refuge within the castle after the Battle of Blore Heath in 1459.
