Sutton Valence Castle

Sutton Valence Castle was built by Baldwin de Béthun in the late twelfth century to dominate the road between Maidstone and the Cinque ports at Winchelsea and Rye. It later passed into the hands of the Earls of Pembroke and was briefly owned by Simon de Montfort, leader of the rebel faction during the Second Barons' War. It was abandoned as a residence in the late fourteenth century.
