This article is in fine shape, castles aren't my thing, but I'll give it a go:
 * the acre conversions to hectares should use the |adj=on parameter so they don't render as "acres"
 * Done. Hchc2009 (talk) 06:44, 25 June 2017 (UTC)


 * there is a reversed conversion in the Gardens and parkland subsection (ie ha to acres rather than acres to ha like the rest)
 * Done. Hchc2009 (talk) 06:44, 25 June 2017 (UTC)


 * link Kirby Muxloe
 * Done. Hchc2009 (talk) 06:44, 25 June 2017 (UTC)


 * Where it says "Henry used it to imprison Mary Queen of Scots in 1569" it is a bit confusing. Do you mean Henry Hastings or Henry VIII? If the former, why was he doing that?
 * Done - see if it works. Hchc2009 (talk) 06:44, 25 June 2017 (UTC)


 * link Council of the North
 * Done. Hchc2009 (talk) 06:44, 25 June 2017 (UTC)


 * suggest briefly explaining what an "Irish fort" was
 * Nobody really knows, so have added a footnote. Hchc2009 (talk) 06:44, 25 June 2017 (UTC)


 * where it says "Henry returned to the castle in September" it isn't clear where he was before that
 * Done. Hchc2009 (talk) 06:44, 25 June 2017 (UTC)


 * "Henry's involvement in the recent rebellion," isn't clear. It says there were concerns about him, but then says he was involved. Did he actually participate in it?
 * Clarified. Hchc2009 (talk) 06:44, 25 June 2017 (UTC)


 * "deploying gunpowder" is a term I'm not familiar with. Does it mean he blew it up, or set charges to do so? If blown up, what parts?
 * Have clarified, but it is unclear which bits were undermined and which were blown up. Hchc2009 (talk) 06:44, 25 June 2017 (UTC)


 * link Tournament (medieval)
 * Done. Hchc2009 (talk) 06:44, 25 June 2017 (UTC)


 * link hearth and portcullis
 * Done. Hchc2009 (talk) 06:44, 25 June 2017 (UTC)


 * the reference to "great chamber for the lord" is this different from the Great Chamber?
 * Yes - have tried to clarify. Hchc2009 (talk) 06:44, 25 June 2017 (UTC)


 * All the images appear to be appropriately licensed.
 * deer park and The Midlands are overlinked
 * Done. Hchc2009 (talk) 06:44, 25 June 2017 (UTC)

 * Thanks Peacemaker - hopefully all done now. Hchc2009 (talk) 06:44, 25 June 2017 (UTC)
