	Henry d'Essex Information
		Saltwood Castle derives its name from the village in its shadow, and was the home of Henry d'Essex, Baron of Raleigh and Royal Standard Bearer.
		The surviving structure of Saltwood Castle is considered to be the work of Henry d'Essex from 1154, particularly the 'curtain wall' which it has been claimed was begun during the reign of Henry I.(d 1135).
		King Henry II transferred the castle to Henry de Broc as a 'reprisal for the treason of Henry de Essex', which further aggravated Becket's quarrel with the King.
