The first castle was built by William Rufus in the 1090's, as a stone motte and bailey in the north part of the former fort. In the 1268 the castle passed to the Clifford family, the barons de Clifford, who also owned Brougham Castle in the area. Robert Clifford began to enlarge and improve the castle, building the circular tower at the south east corner, known as Clifford's Tower, around 1300. A new upper hall, and associated chambers, was built by his grandson Roger around 1350. The Cliffords lived here until Christmas 1521, when fire again destroyed the castle. After lying derelict for nearly 140 years, Lady Anne Clifford began a programm of repairs and rebuilding at Brough in 1659. A stone plaque commemorating her efforts was erected in 1663. She spent considerable periods of time here, but after her death in 1676 the castle ceased to be occupied. (Website: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Brough_Castle) 3.
