Key to England quote originally by Matthew Paris, am trying to find the original reference. See [1].

According to Robert Liddiard in "Castles in Context: Power, Symbolism and Landscape, 1066 to 1500" this phrase was NOT invented by Matthew Paris but by Castellan Hubert de Burgh in 1216, with Liddiard acknowledging the mistake. --Letstalk 16:50, 9 June 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Broken Page Link

I have no idea what to do so I'll tell you here. Under Tudor, "they were improved by Henry VIII, who made a personal visit, and added to with the Moat Bulwark." Moat Bulwark as a page does not seem to exist anymore on Wikipedia even though I can click it. 71.230.202.3 23:22, 6 February 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Time Splitters

Wasn't Dover castle level 2 in Time Splitters 3? Should this be mentioned? ^Talk User:Fissionfox 11:50, 8 May 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Project Assessment

A beautiful start, but needs expansion, particularly in the introduction. One sentence which fails to explain when it was originally built, by whom, when (and under whom) it reached its climax, and what important events or battles took place there, simply will not cut it.
