I was on the Castle tour in 2003 and the guide said that the Normans built castles at a distance of 8 miles between each other. Has anybody heard this, or anything like it? I am having trouble finding a source for this.

Sorry, nothing I know of history supports this. Though in the Trim neighbourhood, there were at least two other de Lacy-built castles, Killeen and Dunsany. More than 8 miles away though, and very close to each other. 195.96.72.22 15:20, 16 May 2007 (UTC)[reply]

File:TrimCastleNorman.jpg is currently a dead link. Anybody know what happened? There are multiple links to it. --Red King 14:04, 7 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Terms - links

There are a few terms, such as "great tower", with dead (red) links. Perhaps best to deactivate them - at least one seems too general.

Overall, a good starter article but I will try to expand, as I have visited a few times, and have some familiarity with the area. 195.96.72.22 15:21, 16 May 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Please do. It would be a good idea to create an ID for yourself - anything you fancy really. It makes it easier for people to contact you for comments (only on your talk page). --Red King 19:41, 16 May 2007 (UTC)[reply]

And it would be great if you could take a picture to repalce the deleted one (see above) and put it on WikiCommons. --Red King 19:43, 16 May 2007 (UTC)[reply]

"largest Norman castle in Europe"

The article currently says Trim is "the remains of the largest Norman castle in Europe". Could somebody please cite this? Thanks. 86.44.57.55 (talk) 23:04, 5 February 2010 (UTC)[reply]

11th Century?

The article says that Trim castle was built from the 11th century but the earliest mention of it in the history section is 1172, perhaps someone could mention who began building it or who had possession of it before the Normans - if indeed it was begun in the 11th century at all. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 92.1.144.14 (talk) 07:27, 13 January 2011 (UTC)[reply]

de Genneville clarification

I'll look it up in the guidebook, which I have at home. Drow69 (talk) 13:55, 20 August 2012 (UTC) Done Drow69 (talk) 15:53, 21 August 2012 (UTC)[reply]
