Rye, Ypres Castle 1894

More about this scene
Built in 1249 to defend the town from French raids, by the late 14th century the castle was used by the town corporation before being sold in 1430 to one John de Ypres; it was bought back by the corporation in 1518 for use as a prison. It ceased to be a prison in 1865, and is now a museum. To the right is the Gun Garden, where prize firings of cannon were held every year by the Cinque Ports Volunteer Artillery in the 1860s during the French invasion scares of that decade.
