This article is in good shape. Just a few comments from me:

in the lead, given the number of William's, "William's heir" is a bit sketchy, I'd suggest "The fourth earl", assuming that is correct

I've gone for a variant - see what you think. Hchc2009 (talk) 09:23, 14 October 2017 (UTC)[reply]

the use of bolding of bailey gate in the lead is not per MOS:BOLD, as it is not a synonym. Unless there is another MOS reason for its bolding I recommend unbolding it

The Castle Acre Bailey Gate article links in here, which I think (it certainly used to be) covered by MOS:BOLD.

that is a redirect rather than an article. Bolding in the lead is limited to synonyms, and the bailey gate isn't a synonym for Castle Arce Castle and town walls, it is a subset of it.

the footnote in the lead is unnecessary, as the quote is footnoted in the body

Direct quotes and stats in the lead are normally referenced - although other information doesn't need to be. Hchc2009 (talk) 09:40, 14 October 2017 (UTC)[reply]

Earl of Leicester is overlinked

Fixed. ~~

suggest "William gave ~~the~~ St Mary's"

Fixed. Hchc2009 (talk) 09:23, 14 October 2017 (UTC)[reply]

suggest removing the initial cap from Duke in "backed the Duke" as it is not a formal title, we know who is being referred to, there is another example

Done. Hchc2009 (talk) 09:40, 14 October 2017 (UTC)[reply]

suggest linking Disseisor

Definitely, done. Hchc2009 (talk) 09:23, 14 October 2017 (UTC)[reply]

do you mean "the Peddars Way was redirected"?

Yep, fixed. Hchc2009 (talk) 09:23, 14 October 2017 (UTC)[reply]

"Thomas Howard, 3rd Duke of Norfolk, the Duke of Norfolk" the last bit seems unnecessary

Town walls. is an incomplete sentence fragment

Fixed. Hchc2009 (talk) 09:40, 14 October 2017 (UTC)[reply]

the isbn's are inconsistent, some contain hyphens, some do not
