"Stokesay Castle is one of the most perfect and interesting specimens
of an early fortified mansion in England; and from the beauty of its
situation, in a valley bounded by steep and richly wooded hills, at
whose base the river Oney flows through luxuriant meadows, it forms
an object as interesting to the artist as to the antiquarian."
