Chateau, Dieppe, [France], 1871. 'The Chateau of Dieppe, which crowns the cliff to the west of the town, cannot claim any very great antiquity in its present state, though its situation is such as to render it more than probable that some eagle of war or other, from the earliest times, must have lighted upon this as an eyrie for observation or depredation. From the cliff on which it is built, or from the terraces in its ascent, a fine view of Dieppe may be seen'. From "Illustrated London News", 1871.
