Description
The Southampton Castle wall, dating from the late 14th century, runs from Forest View to Castle Lane. It features the remains of twin drum towers that flanked the main gateway to Southampton's medieval castle. These towers were added to the defensive bailey wall of the Royal Castle. The stone rubble walls reach a height of nearly 20 feet and include several arches, some of which are now blocked. This structure is scheduled as an ancient monument.
