About Orford Castle
Built in the 12th century for Henry II, Orford Casle was intended to curtail the power of turbulent East Anglian barons, such as Hugh Bigod of nearby Framlingham Castle. Its polygonal keep was built to a revolutionary design, which is today a landmark in the Suffolk landscape. This unconventional design is matched by an unusual history, marked by drama of all kinds.
