=== Life Sketch ===
Roger de Pitres (also called Roger de Pistri) (d. bef. 1083), a Norman, was the Sheriff of Gloucester under William the Conqueror and constable of Gloucester Castle.
Roger's origins are confirmed in his territorial appellation, de Pitres; he was a Norman from Pîtres, Eure, canton of Pont-de-l'Arche. He followed William the Conqueror to England in 1066. Roger was an adherent of William FitzOsbern and owed much of his landed wealth to this association. After the death of Earl William in 1071, Roger was more closely associated with the crown. He was sheriff of Gloucester from 1071 and constable of Gloucester castle, which he constructed. Members of his family succeeded him in these hereditary offices. His brother Durand of Gloucester (d.1096) succeeded him as sheriff by 1083. Both Roger de Pitres and his brother Durand were buried at St. Peter's Abbey in Gloucester.
Roger's wife was named Adeliza and together they had:
. Walter of Gloucester, subsequently Sheriff of Gloucester
. Herbert, of whom little is known other than he predeceased his brother Walter.

'For a few years immediately following the Conquest, probably whilethe first castle was being constructed, Gloucester was held at farm byWilliam FitzOsbern (d. 1071), earl of Hereford, and so was attached tothe great lordship created to secure the southern Marches. (fn. 6) Inthat period or soon afterwards the new castle was placed in the chargeof Roger of Gloucester (or de Pîtres), whose family, as hereditarycastellans and sheriffs of the county, was to dominate Gloucester forthe next 100 years. (fn. 7) Roger died before 1086 when his officesand his estates in the county were held by his brother Durand. Theypassed before 1100 to Roger's son Walter of Gloucester who rebuilt thecastle on a more substantial scale (fn. 8) and added the office ofroyal constable to the family's responsibilities.

The survey of c. 1100 records that there were already 10 churches inGloucester (fn. 17) and, as suggested above, most of them wereprobably founded before 1066.

Author: From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Publication: Name: https://www.wikiwand.com/en/High_Sheriff_of_Gloucestershire#/12th_and_13th_century;
Note: This is a list of Sheriffs and High Sheriffs of Gloucestershire, who should not be confused with the Sheriffs of the City of Gloucester.
The High Sheriff is the oldest secular office under the Crown (in England and Wales the office previously known as sheriff was retitled High Sheriff on 1 April 1974). Formerly the Sheriff was the principal law enforcement officer in the county but over the centuries most of the responsibilities associated with the post have been transferred elsewhere or are now defunct, so that the High Sheriff's functions are now largely ceremonial. The High Sheriff changes every March.
As of 2006, the Sheriff's territory or bailiwick is covered by the administrative areas of Gloucestershire County Council and of South Gloucestershire District Council. Sir Robert Atkyns, the historian of Gloucester, writing in 1712 stated that no family had produced more Sheriffs of this county than Denys.

Note: The influence of war on late Anglo-Saxon and Anglo-Norman society was dominant and all-pervasive. Here in this book, gathered together for the first time, are fundamental articles on warfare in England and Normandy in the 11th and 12th centuries, combining the work of some of the foremost scholars in the field.
Redressing the tendency to study military institutions and obligations in isolation from the practice of war, equal emphasis is given both to organisation and composition of forces, and to strategy, tactics and conduct of war. The result is not only an in-depth analysis of the nature of war itself, but a study of warfare in a broader social, political and cultural context. The Themes dealt with largely span the period of the Conquest, offering an assessment of the extent to wh...

Roger's origins are confirmed in his territorial appellation, de Pitres; he was a Norman from Pîtres, Eure, canton of Pont-de-l'Arche. He followed William the Conqueror to England in 1066. Roger had been an adherent of Earl William FitzOsbern and owed much of his landed wealth to this association. After the death of Earl William in 1071, Roger was more closely associated with the crown. He was sheriff of Gloucester from 1071 and constable of Gloucester castle, which he constructed. Members of his family succeeded him in these hereditary offices. His brother Durand succeeded him as sheriff by 1083. Both Roger de Pitres and his brother Durand were buried at St. Peter's Abbey in Gloucester.
Family
Roger's wife was named Adeliza (Eunice-?) and together they had:
Walter of Gloucester, succeeded his father as Sheriff of Gloucester
Herbert, of whom little is known other than he predeceased his brother Walter.
Roger's successors as Sheriffs of Gloucester and constable were his brother Durand (1083), who in turn was succeeded by Roger's son Walter of Gloucester (1096), and his grandson, Miles of Gloucester, 1st Earl of Hereford who succeeded his father Walter before 1126.

- Title: Wikiwand: Gloucester Castle
Author: From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Publication: Name: https://www.wikiwand.com/en/Gloucester_Castle;
Note: Gloucester Castle was a Norman-era royal castle situated in the city of Gloucester in Gloucestershire, England. It was demolished in 1787 and replaced by Gloucester Prison.
It was probably constructed by the Anglo-Norman Roger de Pitres, the first post-Norman Conquest Sheriff of Gloucestershire, as a simple motte and bailey castle during the reign of William the Conqueror (1066-1087), when sixteen houses were demolished to make way for it. It was enlarged by King William II (1087-1100) who demolished eight more houses. Walter of Gloucester, Sheriff of Gloucestershire, succeeded his father Roger de Pitres as Constable of the castle. Before 1113 Walter built a new castle west of Barbican hill on a former garden of Gloucester Abbey, overlooking the River Severn. Walter's son, and the next Constable of Gloucester Castle, was Miles FitzWalter of Gloucester, 1st Earl of Hereford (d.1143) (alias Miles of Gloucester), Sheriff of Gloucestershire, a great magnate based in the west of England who became hereditary Constable of England. He was succeeded as Constable of Gloucester Castle by his eldest son Roger Fitzmiles, 2nd Earl of Hereford (d.1155). Later it was retained by the Crown.
King's residence
More improvements and some repairs were carried out by Henry III, these improvements including a bridge across the River Severn leading to a barbican in the outer wall. Henry III often used it as a residence, and it played an important role in the barons' war when it was besieged twice in 1264–5. Part of the castle had been being used as a gaol by 1185 and it was probably then the official county gaol, as it certainly was by 1228, and Eleanor of Brittany, niece of King John and cousin of Henry III with a better claim to the throne according to primogeniture and thus becoming a state prisoner, had been briefly imprisoned there during the reign of John, from 1222 to 1223, and from 1237 to 1238.
Decline
The defences were kept in full repair until the mid 15th century. It is likely that in the reign of Richard III the castle ceased to be maintained as a fortress, continuing in use only as the county gaol. Much of the stonework of the castle was taken to construct roads and other buildings and by the mid 17th century all the buildings around the curtain wall had apparently gone, leaving only the keep, used as the gaol, and the main gatehouse standing. In time the keep was considered to be unsuitable for use as a gaol and its demolition began in 1787. The new gaol was finished in 1791 leaving no visible remains of the castle.
Conservation
In December 2015, the castle's foundations were uncovered by archaeologists who were investigating the Gloucester Prison site ahead of a new development. Since being rediscovered there have been calls to make the site open to the public. The owners of the site are currently considering how they will include parts of the castle in their plans for the site's future.
