Ludlow Castle, Shropshire, England, 1924-1926. The building of Ludlow Castle was begun in the late 11th century by Roger de Lacy, one of the Marcher Lords on the border with Wales. In the early 14th century it was extended by Roger Mortimer, the powerful baron who led the rebellion that overthrew Edward II. The castle was an important base during the Wars of the Roses, and by the late 15th century had become the seat of government of Wales and the Border Counties. Ludlow avoided damage in the English Civil War, but fell into decline after its administrative functions were moved to London in the late 17th century.
