Peveril Castle is among the most dramatically sited Norman castles in England. Begun soon after 1066 by William Peveril, one of William the Conqueror's Knights, the castle came into rival hands in 1155 and was much strengthened by King Henry II. The guidebook explores the remains of the castle and traces the history of this Peak landmark from its origins to the present day.
