How many castles are there in the UK?
17?
Possibly one of the most disappointing categories on PocketGPSWorld. Let's change it!
Submit a castle or castles near you: http://www.pocketgpsworld.com/modules.php?name=POIs&ShowSubmit[/url]

Yes, and English Heritage.
CADW (Welsh) sites are also shown under the above.
(Evidently Monmouthshire has more castles than any other county in the UK). _________________ Formerly known as Lost_Property

This is the reason that I'd like the following main categories merged into one (but keeping the sub categories as they are):
Attraction
Heritage Site
Historical & Cultural

Be aware that the merging of Sub-categories, within the above mentioned Categories, has now been completed.
Find them under Attractions. _________________ Richard
