Britain is collapsing

Most castles are just grey squares. Not everyone was wealthy enough to build fancy sprawling estates with minarets and towers.

This is a pretty castle doe

This is a symbol of the invasion and oppression of our people and I will have it torn down.

Ask yourself why you're taught about the slave trade but not about this

And we think rent control is bad here

our people

You are not an Anglo-Saxon
You are an Irishman who worked in a cotton mill

you could be getting anglosaxon retribution and nazbolism but instead you have to pander and apologize to pakis for what normans did.

yeah?

I doubt anyone on this site worked on a cotton mill

Given the dogshit state of that castle the UK should nationalize it. If you don't maintain a historic building you shouldn't have the right to own it.

what makes you think it is in a dogshit state? it's one of the best in the country

its a land grab on behalf of blackrock

ok post your castle, the one that you own and dwell in, faggot

its an 900 year old castle idiot, its not going to look brand new, doesn't mean it isn't well preserved & maintained, faggot

Yeah Im certain the Torygraph is reporting this story with utmost care for accuracy

It does seem strange to me that this alleged kingdom has castles owned not by the monarch but by private individuals.

Maybe the owner could replace those bricks that fell out of the foundation? Seems like the bare minimum amount of work honestly. This guy is a retard

these buildings are listed you can't just slap new brick where ever you like, there are very strict laws regarding repairs and modifications, it will have been assessed by a structural engineer and deemed perfectly safe so if that area needed reinforcement then it would have it, those walls are like 10 foot thick, faggot

why the fuck would the king own ALL the castles? thats not how it works

A castles symbolises control, therefore it should belong to the king.

My region is full of castles and I've never seen one as ugly as that.

99% of castles symbolize nothing, they're just military bases.

The UK should nationalize it. If you don't maintain a historic building you shouldn't have the right to own it.

Or at least, auction it and allow for some wealthier person to own it and maintain it, with the government being allowed to bid themselves if they truly think it's worth keeping.

uh, are you fresh off the rubber boat or something? do you know anything about british history at all? we had a thing called the aristocracy here, landed gentry, lords, dukes, counts, marquesses and so on, they had their own castles and stately homes, the monarch didn't own them all

Military bases symbolise control, ergo castles symbolise control.

you're thinking of forts

Playing Crusader Kings has taught me that granting too many holdings to vassals is a bad idea.

maintain it

retard see

You also overestimate the amount of natives here who give a single fuck about medieval history and the feudal hierarchy.

the current monarchy didn't even exist 900 years ago they didn't grant shit to anyone with respects to that castle

please improve your reading comprehension, nigel. nothing i said counters anything that you said. strict laws around the structural engineering of heritage sites does not mean that they are absolved from maintenance. it only means that the barrier to entry is higher.

um actually

Shut up you're autistic

TZD

not an argument, retard

Castle

More like a tower house

Oof, they are not even pretending they don't hate their own citizens anymore.

Taxing the shit out of family farms when it passes down theough inheritance, whick will kill most of the farms.

Giving gibs to foreign thirdie farmers with that money they raises by shafting their own farmers.

Pointing out irrelevant pedantry is an argument.
