[PAR] [TLE] Berkhamsted Place [SEP] Berkhamsted Place was an English country house which was erected sometime around 1580 in Berkhamsted, Hertfordshire, England.  It was built by Sir Edward Carey, the keeper of the Jewels to Queen Elizabeth I from stones removed from Berkhamsted Castle.  Several notable residents of Berkhamsted lived in the house and over the years its owners welcomed guests such as King Charles I and William Gladstone. [PAR] [TLE] Berkhamsted Castle [SEP] Berkhamsted Castle is a Norman motte-and-bailey castle in Berkhamsted, Hertfordshire.  The castle was built to obtain control of a key route between London and the Midlands during the Norman conquest of England in the 11th century.  Robert of Mortain, William the Conqueror's half brother, was probably responsible for managing its construction, after which he became the castle's owner.  The castle was surrounded by protective earthworks and a deer park for hunting.  The castle became a new administrative centre of the former Anglo-Saxon settlement of Berkhamsted.  Subsequent kings granted the castle to their chancellors.  The castle was substantially expanded in the mid-12th century, probably by Thomas Becket.
