St Mawes Castle

Hi and welcome to my regular update.

I have been busy these last two weeks revamping the website.

It now loads and runs faster and should make your viewing experience more pleasurable.

I was also able to continue with adding more content to the site and you can now learn about St Mawes Castle in England.

St Mawes was the sister castle built along with Pendennis Castle by Henry VIII between 1539 and 1545.

I hope you are enjoying the site and I look forward to your comments.

Best wishes and have a great day

Two new castles added for your perusal

Hi and welcome once again.

I have been busy these last two weeks revamping the site to make it load quicker and searching out more great content for my site.

Everything is getting back to normal after the family bereavement.

So as they say onwards and upwards.

The two new castles added are Hohensalzburg Castle which is located in Austria, has become one of the largest, fully-preserved fortresses in central Europe and Herstmonceux Castle located in England was constructed at a time when castles built as military fortifications were coming to an end. Instead it was designed along the lines of a grand mansion using a newly developed, highly fashionable product of the day – ‘Bricks’.

I hope you find these two castles an interesting read and I look forward to your company again soon.

Best wishes and have a great day

European Castles - New Castle Added

Hi to one and all,

Not much to report this week due to a family bereavement in Portugal.

I was able to create just one new page due to having to look after my two boys aged 9 and 5.

Anyway the new castle is Fort la Latte, which is located along the picturesque coast of North Brittany, France, on top of 70 metre high cliffs.

It is now just over three months since the site was launched and started to receive a significant amount of traffic to push it up the Alexa ranks.

I would like to take this opportunity to thank everyone who has come along and visited my site. With out your support the site would not be able to continually grow and move up the rankings towards the number one spot in its field.

Thank You

Stuart
