More Information
Sir Walter Raleigh has been described as 'great man of the Elizabethan age', and 'Jersey's most distinguished Governor', being poet, soldier, historian and explorer, among other things. He was a favourite of Elizabeth I and a 'peacock', always in the latest fashion with good looks and obvious charm. Raleigh was also responsible for the preservation of Mont Orgueil Castle from destruction at the time when Elizabeth Castle was being built.
