Beverstone Castle - home of Michael Hicks (son of Juliana Arthur)

````````````````````````````

I don't know if it may be proved that Juliana Arthur

(see thread about Oxford and Nash)

is of the same family as Katherine (née Arthur) Marlowe.

````````````````````````````

What is clear, however, is that Juliana's son had a rather splendid
castle -

Beverstone Castle, Gloucestershire.

Beverston Castle


Beverston Castle south tower of western range

Beverston Castle, also known as Beverstone Castle, was originally
constructed as a medieval stone fortress and is situated in the
village of Beverston, Gloucestershire, England. The castle was founded
in AD 1229 by Maurice de Gaunt.[1] Much of the castle is presently in
the state of ruin as of 2006, but a portion of the structure is
occupied, and an expansive handsome garden is part of the estate.

The castle is situated in the centre of Beverston village,
approximately 200 meters north (and out of sight) of the A4135 road
transecting Beverston.

The original castle design was in an approximately pentagonal form;
later in the early 14th century, a small quadrangular stronghold was
added along with a twin towered gatehouse. Beverston Castle is
situated approximately three kilometres west of the town of Tetbury
and about two kilometers east of the medieval abbey annex, Calcot
Manor.

History


Early Roman remains have been found in the near vicinity at Calcot
Manor, indicating habitation of this area as early as 400 AD,[2]
although it is likely that earlier Iron Age peoples would have also
been in this locale. Historically in medieval times the site is known
as Beverstone, but in the earlier Middle Ages it was called
Beverstane. Another early label for this site was Bureston, derived
from the large number of blue stones found here.[3]

The site itself is known to have been the location of an important
circa 1140 AD battle between the opposing English armies of King
Stephen and Empress Matilda[1]. Apparently Maurice de Gaunt
constructed the original castle somewhat prior to 1229 AD without a
royal licence, but was granted a licence for the purpose of adding
crenellation. This early castle was fortified by a T-shaped ditch,
part of which is still intact in the appearance of a partial moat on
the south side of the castle. In the early 14th century, Thomas, Lord
Berkeley, the rich (1293–1361), modified Beverston Castle, erecting a
small quadrangular stronghold, with a twin-towered gatehouse. A
smaller square tower was added in the late 15th century.

In the 16th century, it is known that Sir Michael Hicks (son of from
London and Julia Arthur) owned Beverston Castle and passed the
Beverston holding to his son Sir William Hicks, 1st Bart of Beverston.
The estate remained in the Hicks family through at least the early
19th century.


Architecture

The massive extant west range of Beverston Castle (ST862-940) is
flanked on its angles with square towers, and it contains a solar
above a vaulted undercroft. The pentagon shaped masonry castle has two
surviving, albeit ruined, round towers from the original 13th century
construction of de Gaunt. The dressed bluish limestone appears to be
of the same quarry source as nearby Calcot Manor. The two storey
gatehouse, with one extant D-shaped tower, was added by Lord Berkeley
in the 1350–1360 era. The gatehouse arch, totally intact as of 2006,
would have originally been protected by an immense portcullis. Above
the archway was a sizable first floor (second story in American
vernacular) chamber. The ruined northwest square tower dates to the
14th century (Lord Berkeley's work) further modified in the late 15th
century.

The southern domestic range, occupied as of 2006, was built by the
Hicks family in the early 17th century, reflecting an age of growing
security for large manor houses. This range was originally occupied by
a medieval great hall from either the de Gaunt or Berkeley era. In the
year 1691 a fire damaged this southern range, which was restored soon
thereafter.

ARTHUR: English surname of uncertain etymology, perhaps composed of
Welsh art/arth "bear" and Brittonic gur "man," hence "bear-man." In
early Welsh works the word art was used as a figurative synonym for
"warrior."

William Arthur has the following to say about this name: "ARTHUR
(British) A strong man; from Ar (Lat. vir), a man, and thor, strong.
In the Gaelic, Air is the same as Fear, a man; and the ancient
Scythians called a man Aior. Thor was the Jupiter of the Teutonic
races, their god of thunder. In Welsh, Arth is a bear, an emblem of
strength and courage, and ur a noun termination, a man. Arthur, a bear-
man, a hero, a man of strength; the name of a British prince."
