LandmarkBedford Castle
Le château de Bedford était un grand château médiéval situé à Bedford, en Angleterre. Construit après l'an 1100 par Henri Ier, il joua un rôle de premier plan à la fois dans la guerre civile ou l'anarchie et dans la Première Guerre des barons. Il fut considérablement agrandi en pierre, bien qu'il demeure des incertitudes quant à son plan final.
