Tamworth has many ghosts that are said to be haunting it's ancient walls, but two of the most famous are the Black Lady and the White Lady.
Tamworth Castle is of Norman mote & bailey design with a shell keep. The present stone structure replaced the first timber tower surrounded by a palisade, which was built shortly after the Norman Conquest in 1066. The land of the former Saxon burgh was given to Robert de Despencer by William, and it subsequently passed through marriage into the Marmion family. Numerous additions and alterations were made to the castle by succeeding generations of owners, until the late 1890's, when Marquis Townshend decided to sell the Castle by auction.
