Clifford’s Tower in York (pictured above) – Originally built as a motte (mound) in 1086 with a wooden castle on the top, Cliffords Tower’s stone tower was completed in 1313, only to crack from top to bottom some 50 years later when part of the mound collapsed into the moat. In 1322, Roger de Clifford was hanged by chains from the wall of the tower for opposing Edward II, and after that the keep was known as ‘Clifford’s Tower’.
