Publisher: Valentine's PHOTOTYPE Series
Series No: W1198
Faults: Minor wear bottom corner
Background: Ludlow Castle is a large, now ruined castle which dominates the town of Ludlow in Shropshire, England. It stands on a high point overlooking the river Teme. The castle was first constructed in the 12th century by a Norman marcher lord, and was held by the de Lacy and Mortimer families before passing into the hands of the crown with the accession of King Edward IV of England. It underwent substantial rebuilding in the Tudor period, and remained a royal possession until 1811. It now belongs to the Earl of Powis.
