Kirby Muxloe Castle
Welcome to the new series of the History Roadshow, today we visit Kirby Muxloe Castle. Kirby Muxloe Castle, is a ruined, fortified manor house in Kirby Muxloe, Leicestershire. William, Lord Hastings, began work on the castle in 1480, founding it on the site of a pre-existing manor house.
The castle was rectangular in design, and would have comprised four corner towers, three side towers and a large gatehouse, all protected by a water-filled moat; the centre of the castle would have formed a courtyard. Of these buildings, only the gatehouse and the west tower survive today, partially intact.
William, Lord Hastings, was the chamberlain of the royal household and a favourite of Edward IV. William had acquired extensive estates across the Midlands during the Wars of the Roses, much of it confiscated from his enemies.
In 1474, Edward granted William the right to fortify, four of his manors and to build deer parks around them. Among these was Kirby Muxloe, which the King authorised to be turned into a castle and surrounded by a large park of 2,000 acres
Work began on the castle in October 1480, under the direction of Roger Bowlott, who was Lord Hasting's steward and became the clerk of works for the project. Most of the existing manor house was protected during the work, and probably continued in use while the new castle was built around it.
A picturesque setting awaits, as you stroll around this fortified mansion, once full of power and glory now reduced to a part of English history that serves us a well told story of a man and his goals in life which was left incomplete.
Kirby Muxloe Castle serves as a poignant memorial to his ambition and sudden demise.

Music is Traditional Medieval Troubadour
Kirby Muxloe Castle, known also as Kirby Castle is an unfinished 15th century fortified manor house in Kirby Muxloe, Leicestershire, England (grid reference SK524046).
It was begun in 1480 by William Hastings, 1st Baron Hastings, during the period of the Wars of the Roses. He already owned a manor house on the site (some of the original manor house foundations are visible as ruins within the enclosure of the castle), for which he planned to totally redevelop. His ambition was to create a fortified residence on a rectangular plan enclosed by walls, towers and a moat. However work stopped at the castle when he was executed in 1483 for treason by Richard III and it was never completed. Parts of the castle were occupied by the remaining Hastings family members, but by the 16th century the site had been left to ruin.

KIRBY MUXLOE CASTLE 2022 (CRB)
Kirby Muxloe Castle, also known historically as Kirby Castle, is a ruined, fortified manor house in Kirby Muxloe, Leicestershire, England. William, Lord Hastings, began work on the castle in 1480, founding it on the site of a pre-existing manor house. William was a favourite of King Edward IV and had prospered considerably during the Wars of the Roses. Work continued quickly until 1483, when William was executed during Richard, Duke of Gloucester's, seizure of the throne. His widow briefly continued the project after his death but efforts then ceased, with the castle remaining largely incomplete. Parts of the castle were inhabited for a period, before falling into ruin during the course of the 17th century. In 1912, the Commissioners of Work took over management of the site, repairing the brickwork and carrying out an archaeological survey. In the 21st century, the castle is controlled by English Heritage and open to visitors.
The castle was rectangular in design, 245 by 175 feet (75 by 53 m) across, and would have comprised four corner towers, three side towers and a large gatehouse, all protected by a water-filled moat; the centre of the castle would have formed a courtyard. Of these buildings, only the gatehouse and the west tower survive today, partially intact. They are constructed with decorative brickwork and stone detailing, in a fashionable late 15th-century style, and have various symbols built into their walls using darker bricks. Twelve gunports for early gunpowder artillery were built into the walls of these two buildings, although historians are uncertain whether these defences were intended to be practical or symbolic. The government body Historic England considers the castle to be a spectacular example of a late medieval quadrangular castle of the highest status

Leicester UK - Amazing History, Buildings ⛪, Shopping ???? and Green Spaces ????
Welcome to my Leicester video. A city centre full of history, beautiful buildings, green spaces and loads of shopping.
Leicester is situated in the Midlands region of England and is easy to get to through the motorway network with the M1 taking you North or South and the M69 heading towards Coventry and indirectly Birmingham. The city is on a mainline rail route and car parking is ample. I used the Highcross John Lewis car park for easy access to the city centre.
There is so much to do in Leicester, that I would recommend a long weekend break to explore the city and attractions nearby.
Regards,
Andy

Tour of Ashby de la Zouch Castle,Ashby-de-la-Zouch, Leicestershire, England.
Ashby de la Zouch Castle is a partically ruined fortification in the town of Ashby-de-la-Zouch, Leicestershire, England.
As with many of the castles, priories and ruins I visited in the Covid summer of 2020, it's the detail that I find most interesting: Cannon ball pot marks, construction techniques and more.
