Chepstow Castle, located in Chepstow on top of cliffs overlooking the River Wye, is the oldest surviving stone fortification in Britain. It was built under the instructions of the Norman lord William fitzOsbern from 1067, and was the southernmost of a chain of castles built along the English-Welsh border.

William fitz Osbern, maybe between 1067 and 1071, built Chepstow Castle. It was built to secure the river Wye, which was the only way up into the Marches at the time in question. It was built by agreement by the Welsh and the Normans
