Rochester Castle, Co. Kent, UK
Rochester Castle is located in Co. Kent, in southeast England. Construction began around 1087-1089, right at the end of William the Conqueror's reign, at a strategic location along River Medway and an old Roman road called Watling Street. It was designed to protect England's south east coast from invasion. The keep or stone tower (seen here) was built later in the 12th century by William de Corbeil, a medieval Archbishop of Canterbury. It is the most prominent feature of the castle and one of the best preserved such structure in Britain or France. This photo was shot on November 8, 1969 with an SLR camera on Kodachrome film and scanned with a Nikon Supercool Scan 5000.
