William and Rufus kept the castle in their own possession, but Henry I. gave it to Roger de Bigod, in whose family it continued till another Roger de Bigod appeared, a most turbulent and trouble- some subject Edward I. made him resign this strong fortress again to the Crown. It is supposed that Framlingham was entirely rebuilt in the reign of Henry II., and the walls attest that it is of Nor- man, not Saxon architecture. Edward II.
gave the castle to his half-brother, Thomas Plantagenent, of Br
...otherton, from whom it descended to Thomas de Mowbray, Duke of Norfolk. From the Mowbrays it de- scended to the Howards, Sir Robert Howard having married Margaret, daughter of Thomas Mowbray. His son, John Howard, was created Earl Marshal and Duke of Norfolk, June 28th, 1483. He was the " Jockey of Norfolk " in Shakspeare's Richard III., and fell at the battle of Bos- worth Field, 1485 ; his son being attainted, the castle became the property of Henry VII., who granted it to John de Vere, thirteenth Earl of Oxford, from whom it again returned to the Howards.
