Description

King Charles's Castle is een ruïne en beschermd monument op het eiland Tresco in de Scilly-eilanden, ten westen van het Engelse graafschap Cornwall. Het bouwwerk was een fort op de heide in het westen van het eiland die als Castle Down bekendstaat, gelegen aan de zeestraat tussen Tresco en het naburige eiland Bryher. De ruïnes liggen 40 meter boven de zeespiegel en werden waarschijnlijk tussen 1550 en 1554 gebouwd, tijdens de regering van Eduard VI van Engeland; ze danken hun huidige naam echter aan Karel II van Engeland, wiens troepen het in 1651 bezetten.
