		BROUGHAM CASTLE,
		On the site of the Roman Brovoniacum, at the confluence of the Eamont and Lowther, where many Roman remains have been found. The present Castle is Norman. The first Roger Lord Clifford built part, as appears from an inscription - 'This made Roger.' In 1651 the countess re-edified it, after it had lain in ruins from 1617. The entrance is by a machicolated gateway and tower, and a short covered way leads to an under gateway with iron-grated gates. The Dongcon, a stately edifice of excellent masonry, rises from the midst of the area: within this is a vault, the groined roof of which is supported by a single octagonal pier. The outward and inner gateways are both vaulted with common arches, and have been defended by portcullises.
		These ruins, standing on a tree-clad eminence

		BROUGHAM CASTLE, WESTMORELAND.
		HISTORY has not recorded the Builder of this Castle, nor handed down to us the time when it was erected; but its stile of architecture, and particularly the Keep, indubitably pronounce it Norman.
		IT is situated on the banks of the river Eimot, vulgarly pronounced Yeoman. Its remains shew it was once a strong, extensive, and beautiful edifice. The chief entrance is through a number of arches by the river-side.
		THE following agreeable description of it is given in a late publication, intitled,
		'An Excursion to the Lakes.'
		'WE quited the high-road in order to pass by Brougham castle, a spacious ruin, situate on the banks of the river Yeoman. That we might enjoy the prospect to advantage, we crossed over the river, and made a sweep round the Mill which stands almost opposite to Brougham, from whence a view opened upon us delightfully.
		'The Mill, with its streams, lay on the fore-ground to the left;- a beautiful and shining canal, formed by the river Yeoman, margined with shrubs, laid spreading to the right;- in front, the streams which fell over the wear made a foaming cascade;- immediately on the opposite brink of the channel arises brougham Castle.- Three square
		towers projecting, but yet connected with the building, form the front;- from thence, on either side, a little wing falls back some paces;- to the north-east a thick grove of planes and ashes block up the passage, and the gateway;- to the south-west the walls stretch out to a considerable distance along a fine grassy plain of pasture-ground, terminated by a tower, one of the out-posts of the Castle. In the centre of the building arises a lofty square tower, frowning in Gothic strength and gloomy pomp. The shuttered turrets which had formed the angles, and the hanging galleries which had communicated with each, were grown with shrubs and waving brambles. The sun-beams which struck each gasping loup, and bending window, discovered the inward devastation and ruin; and touched the whole with admirable colouring and beauty. To grace the landscape, fine groups of cattle were dispersed on the pasture; and through the tufts of ash trees, which were irregularly dispersed on the back ground, distant mountains were seen skirting the horizon.
		'THE lower apartment in the principal tower is still remaining entire; being covered with a vaulted roof of stone, consisting of eight arches which, as they spring from the side walls, are supported and terminate on a pillar in the centre. The apartment mentioned to have been in Bowes Castle, was assuredly of the same architecture;
