The village-sized town of Orford was once an important port, its castle built by Henry II to stamp his authority on a rebellious region, and defend his realm from sea-borne attack. Henry built innovatively and with an eye very firmly on costs. The whole castle came in at £1,413 10s and 10d, partly through its clever design (three towers not four), and partly through the use of local limestone for most of the building, although the quoins were of tougher Northamptonshire stone, and key pieces were sourced in Normandy.
