![Surviving section of the medieval town wall of Chepstow, Monmouthshire, Wales. A nearby plaque reads: "The wall that defended the mediaval town of Chepstow has been called the Portwall for many years. It was apparently planned and built as a whole by order of Roger Bigod, fifth Earl of Norfolk, during the period 1272-1278. About two-thirds of the original length of 1123 metres still survives. . . . The wall now appears smaller as the ground level has risen by about 2m, there was also a defensive ditch in front of the wall."](https://images.trvl-media.com/place/5618/706e310b-a6ff-4a65-bc9a-1bc1d76d27e8.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=1040&h=580&q=mediumHigh)
