charb's question:
charb's question: What's the history of this Leeds castle in Maidstone? Who did it belong to?(give a different answer) .
It had a thousand owners: built in the 12th century and replacing a wooden construction it was first given to Edward I. Then it passed to Henry VIII, who made it look more like a royal residence than a military fortress, but most of the time it belonged to England's queens. Six of them talked about Leeds castle as their favorite home. Go see the beautiful gardens and the Dog Collar museum! Dogs were kings at that time :)
