Comments
[edit]Great work as usual with this article. I only have some minor comments:
- "the Isles had been Royalist supporters" - this sounds a bit odd (eg, that the islands were supporting the Royalists) - perhaps tweak it to something like "the leaders of the Isles were supporters of..."?
- "made from massive pieces of rubble" - was the rubble from a previous construction, or was this local rock?
- It might be worth noting that the castle is, according to English Heritage, one of "few surviving Cromwellian fortifications in Britain" Nick-D (talk) 03:14, 31 August 2016 (UTC)
- Cheers! Changes made as suggested. Hchc2009 (talk) 19:01, 1 September 2016 (UTC)
