Lympne Castle in #Kent painted by Peter de Wint in the early 19th century. Haunted by a #Roman soldier from the days when there was a fort here and by the ghosts of six #Saxon men slaughtered in their wooden castle by invading #Normans. Both haunted and historic! #PhantomsFriday #castle #medieval

#Gibson is a Scottish #surname. It can be a #sept of #ClanCampbell, #ClanBuchanan or #ClanMacMillan. In Ireland, Gibson may be an anglicized form of the #IrishGaelic Ó Gibealláin. It may also be derived from the popular medieval name Gilbert (itself derived from Giselbert or Gillebert), introduced to England and Ireland by the #Normans and often shortened to "Gib". In this case the surname Gibson would mean "son of Gib".

900-year-old Norwich Castle reopens after a major £27.5 million revamp.

Towering above the city skyline, the keep was built by William the Conqueror and completed by his son, King Henry I, in 1121.

For centuries, it has loomed as a symbol of Norman power.

Now, the fortress has been reimagined as “The People’s Palace” with all five of its floors - from the basement to the battlements - open to visitors for the first time.
