Launceston Castle
historicThe only shell keep in England to feature a cylindrical tower rising within it, Launceston Castle was the administrative centre of medieval Cornwall — the seat of the Earls of Cornwall and a symbol of Norman power over the Cornish people. The grassy motte commands sweeping views to Dartmoor and Bodmin Moor, and the climb to the tower parapet is rewarded by a panorama encompassing most of east Cornwall.
