Stokesay Castle, located in Shropshire, United Kingdom, is a remarkably well-preserved fortified manor house that dates back to the late 13th century. Built by the wealthy wool merchant Laurence of Ludlow, the castle is an exceptional example of medieval domestic architecture. Its distinct features include a great hall, a solar (private apartments), and defensive towers, all surrounded by a moat. The timber-framed gatehouse, added in the 17th century, adds to its charm.
