Is Winchester Palace a palace or a castle? It seems to be a Palace... Ian Cairns 10:58, 12 Sep 2004 (UTC)
Colchester Castle is listed on this page as being "Privately Owned", which is incorrect. The article states ownership correctly.
This listing should be under the Traditional Counties of England, for most of the castles were built in feudal times and before the recent changes in government administration over boundaries. Castles are as useful today as the archaic address system, whereby one can write in the Trad. Co. form. The castles had a territorial system based upon the T.C. and this article is ignorant of it.
