Subsidiary Castle Sites West of Shrewsbury

Lily Chitty

An early article of interest because of it's focus on a specific area and attempt to draw conclusions about the strategic siting of castle in groups. But, as with most such books of its era, the strategic commentary reflect more the concerns of C19/C20 Imperial Britain than the realities of medieval England.
28 sites.

Published in Transactions of the Shropshire Archaeological Society (1949) Vol. 53 p. 83-90
