Plymouth Castle

Plymouth Castle was a fortification built in the early 15th century to defend the town and harbour of Plymouth. By the end of the 16th century it had ceased to have any military function and fell into disrepair, being almost completely demolished by the 19th century. Only a small fragment of an outer gatehouse remains.
It is a Grade II listed building Link

and a Scheduled Ancient Monument.
