Tonbridge Castle: Explore Gilbert deClare’s 13th Century Gatehouse Tower
Unlike most rebuilt castles in the UK, which focus on the later inhabitants, Tonbridge has been restored to roughly the condition it was when Gilbert de Clare held it in the twelfth century. It is through the prolific de Clare family that we trace our connection to the royal families in most of Europe.
Following the Battle of Hastings, William of Normandy entrusted large areas, called rapes, to his most loyal friends and family members with the expectation that they would build fortifications and protect the newly conquered kingdom from potentially rebellious locals. The area now known as the county of Kent was given to his relative Richard fitzGilbert. To guard the crossing of the Medway River at Tonbridge, fitzGilbert built a motte and bailey castle.

Unlike most rebuilt castles in the UK, which focus on the later inhabitants, Tonbridge has been restored to roughly the condition it was when Gilbert de Clare held it in the twelfth century. It is through the prolific de Clare family that we trace our connection to the royal families in most of Europe.
Following the Battle of Hastings, William of Normandy entrusted large areas, called rapes, to his most loyal friends and family members with the expectation that they would build fortifications and protect the newly conquered kingdom from potentially rebellious locals. The area now known as the county of Kent was given to his relative Richard fitzGilbert. To guard the crossing of the Medway River at Tonbridge, fitzGilbert built a motte and bailey castle.
Richard was often called Richard of Tonbridge, but the family took the name de Clare from their land holdings in Suffolk.
By 1088 the de Clares rebelled against King William II Rufus. Rufus took the castle after a relatively short siege, then burned the castle and town. Rufus was killed in the New Forest a few years later, by Gilbert de Clare’s son-in-law Walter Tyrell. By this time the wooden fortress had been replaced by a stone shell keep.
In the mid-twelfth century the Archbishops of Canterbury claimed that the de Clares held the Lowy, the area surrounding Tonbridge, from them and not from the King, Henry II. They sent a messenger to Tonbridge demanding homage. Roger de Clare forced the messenger to eat the papers. Quarrels between the Archbishop and the King continued until the murder of Thomas a Becket in Canterbury Cathedral on the 29th of December 1170.
In 1215 Tonbridge Castle was taken by King John in retaliation for being forced to sign the Magna Carta. After John died and Henry III become King at the age of 9, the castle was restored to Richard de Clare. Richard died 3 years later, then his son Gilbert died in 1230, leaving a 9 year old son (among other younger children). The Archbishop of Canterbury claimed wardship of the young Richard and excommunicated the de Burghs, who had been granted wardship by the King, from Tonbridge Castle. The Archbishop died, and Richard regained control of his estates from the new one.
By the mid 13th century the de Clare family were nearly as powerful as the King of England, and the King granted Richard de Clare license to wall and embattle Tonbridge Castle. It was then that the great Gatehouse Tower was built over a period of 30 years. His son Gilbert the Red Earl lost the castle temporarily in 1261 for his support of Simon de Montfort against Henry III.
Around 1268 Gilbert began building Caerphilly Castle, and was made Guardian of the Realm 2 years later. After Henry’s death the new King Edward I and his Queen Eleanor stayed at Tonbridge following their return from the Holy Land before their coronation. Gilbert had no heirs by his wife Alice, so their marriage dissolved so he can marry Joan, the daughter of King Edward. He surrendered all his lands to the crown, but they were given to Joan and her heirs. Their son Gilbert died at the Battle of Bannockburn, and the de Clare lands were divided amongst his sisters. Tonbridge went to Margaret who married Hugh d’Audley, and then to the Stafford family through their daughter.
The history is sparse from this point until 1520 when Edward Stafford, Duke of Buckingham, was executed for treason. The castle was falling into disrepair by this time, and in 1525 King Henry VII paid for repairs to the roof of the gatehouse. From then it is given to friends of the King. In 1600 the castle was sold into private hands, and by the 1640s was being dismantled and the timbers and stone used for other buildings in Tonbridge. The bridge over the Medway was rebuilt in 1775 using stone from the towers and wall of Tonbridge Castle. Later the remains of the shell keep was pulled down “out of curiosity”.
In 1791, however, a mansion was built onto the side of the gatehouse by Thomas Hooker, which is now used as council offices and the visitor’s center for the castle park. In the 1940s the gatehouse restoration was begun, culminating in it being restored to its original state (minus a few floors and interior walls).

Eleanor de Clare, suo jure 6th Lady of Glamorgan was a powerful English noblewoman who married Hugh le Despenser, 1st Baron Despenser and was the granddaughter of Edward I of England. With her sisters, Elizabeth de Clare and Margaret de Clare, she inherited her father's estates after the death of her brother, Gilbert de Clare, 8th Earl of Gloucester, 7th Earl of Hereford at the Battle of Bannockburn in 1314. She was born in 1292 at Caerphilly Castle in Glamorgan, Wales and was the eldest daughter Gilbert de Clare, 6th Earl of Hertford, 7th Earl of Gloucester, 5th Lord of Glamorgan and HRH Princess Joan of Acre.
As a co-heiress with her sisters Elizabeth de Clare, and Margaret de Clare, in 1314 she inherited the de Clare estates including the huge feudal barony of Gloucester, following the death of her brother, Gilbert de Clare, 4th Earl of Gloucester at the Battle of Bannockburn. The partition was not fully settled until 1317. During this period the family seat of Caerphilly Castle was held by the king under the stewardship of Payn de Turberville of Coity Castle. In protest against Turberville's mistreatment, the Welsh nobleman Llywelyn Bren and his supporters launched a surprise attack on 28 January 1316, and besieged Caerphilly Castle, which successfully held out under the command of 'The lady of Clare' and a small garrison until relieved by Sir William Montacute on 12 March 1316.
In May 1306 at Westminster, Eleanor married Hugh le Despenser the Younger, the son of Hugh le Despenser, Earl of Winchester by his wife Isabella de Beauchamp, daughter of William de Beauchamp, 9th Earl of Warwick. Despenser thereby became Lord of Glamorgan. Her grandfather, King Edward I, granted Eleanor a dowry of 2,000 pounds sterling. Eleanor's husband rose to prominence as the new favourite of her uncle, King Edward II of England. The king strongly favoured Hugh and Eleanor, visiting them often and granting them many gifts. One foreign chronicler even alleged that Edward was involved in a ménage à trois with his niece and her husband. Eleanor's fortunes changed drastically after the invasion of Isabella of France and Roger Mortimer, following which her husband Hugh le Despenser was executed.
Hugh le Despencer, 2nd Baron le Despencer, eldest son and heir.
Elizabeth le Despenser, wife of Maurice de Berkeley, 4th Baron Berkeley.
In November 1326, Eleanor was confined to the Tower of London. The Despenser family's fortunes also suffered with the executions of Eleanor's husband and father-in-law. Eleanor and Hugh's eldest son Hugh le Despencer, 2nd Baron le Despencer, who held Caerphilly Castle against the queen's forces until the spring of 1327, was spared his life when he surrendered the castle, but he remained a prisoner until July 1331, after which he was eventually restored to royal favour. Three of Eleanor's daughters were forcibly veiled as nuns. Only the eldest daughter, Isabel, and the youngest daughter, Elizabeth, escaped the nunnery, Isabel because she was already married and Elizabeth on account of her infancy. In February 1328 Eleanor was freed from imprisonment. In April 1328, she was restored to possession of her own lands, for which she did homage.

She was born in 1292 at Caerphilly Castle in Glamorgan, Wales and was the eldest daughter Gilbert de Clare, 6th Earl of Hertford, 7th Earl of Gloucester, 5th Lord of Glamorgan and HRH Princess Joan of Acre.
As a co-heiress with her sisters Elizabeth de Clare, and Margaret de Clare, in 1314 she inherited the de Clare estates including the huge feudal barony of Gloucester, following the death of her brother, Gilbert de Clare, 4th Earl of Gloucester at the Battle of Bannockburn. The partition was not fully settled until 1317. During this period the family seat of Caerphilly Castle was held by the king under the stewardship of Payn de Turberville of Coity Castle. In protest against Turberville's mistreatment, the Welsh nobleman Llywelyn Bren and his supporters launched a surprise attack on 28 January 1316, and besieged Caerphilly Castle, which successfully held out under the command of 'The lady of Clare' and a small garrison until relieved by Sir William Montacute on 12 March 1316.
In May 1306 at Westminster, Eleanor married Hugh le Despenser the Younger, the son of Hugh le Despenser, Earl of Winchester by his wife Isabella de Beauchamp, daughter of William de Beauchamp, 9th Earl of Warwick. Despenser thereby became Lord of Glamorgan. Her grandfather, King Edward I, granted Eleanor a dowry of 2,000 pounds sterling. Eleanor's husband rose to prominence as the new favourite of her uncle, King Edward II of England. The king strongly favoured Hugh and Eleanor, visiting them often and granting them many gifts. One foreign chronicler even alleged that Edward was involved in a ménage à trois with his niece and her husband. Eleanor's fortunes changed drastically after the invasion of Isabella of France and Roger Mortimer, following which her husband Hugh le Despenser was executed.

In November 1326, Eleanor was confined to the Tower of London. The Despenser family's fortunes also suffered with the executions of Eleanor's husband and father-in-law. Eleanor and Hugh's eldest son Hugh le Despencer, 2nd Baron le Despencer, who held Caerphilly Castle against the queen's forces until the spring of 1327, was spared his life when he surrendered the castle, but he remained a prisoner until July 1331, after which he was eventually restored to royal favour. Three of Eleanor's daughters were forcibly veiled as nuns. Only the eldest daughter, Isabel, and the youngest daughter, Elizabeth, escaped the nunnery, Isabel because she was already married and Elizabeth on account of her infancy. In February 1328 Eleanor was freed from imprisonment. In April 1328, she was restored to possession of her own lands, for which she did homage.
