Talk:Bruce Castle

message: I've stumbled upon this article by following links on the talk pages that I stalk, and I wanted to point out that per MOS, the article needs a longer lead. Otherwise, an impressive piece of work, especially for that of which was significantly expanded and rewritten in one edit. Cheers, –Juliancolton Tropical Cyclone 01:26, 3 October 2008 (UTC)
replies: text: I've commented on your talkpage already but will post here as well for the benefot of others; please don't remove the redlinks I've added. As Lords and MPs, these people are members of a national legislature and automatically notable by Wikipedia standards, so these redlinks are supposed to be there to encourage people to fill them in. – iridescent 01:35, 3 October 2008 (UTC)

message: Is it worth mentioning that the Castle was the museum of the Middlesex Regiment, apparently from 1969  to 1992 . I remember visiting it some time in the 1980s. Lozleader (talk) 21:54, 23 March 2009 (UTC)
replies: text: Definitely; I've added it in. – iridescent 22:43, 23 March 2009 (UTC)

thread_title: Congratulations!

message: :::Gripe 1.  I found a cited reference that tells us that the round tower was over a well, and served as a "dairy" (ie for storing dairy products). Hiwever, this sentence remains:  The purpose of the tower is unknown, but speculation suggests it might have been a dovecote. 
:::Gripe 2.  I pointed out that all the features of the church were represented on the map of the early 17th c. Yet the statement wich occurred in the refence that neither the church nor the house was depicted accurately was allowed to remain. The fact is that although the proportions of the church building are undoubtedly at fault, the nature of the structure, and the position of its parts in relation to each other are accurately represented. 
::::Given the accuracy of the depiction of the church, how can we then decide that a house, the rear of which we have never seen, is inaccurately represented? In fact, that little drawing on the map presents us with the best possible evidence of how the north side of the building appeared. It indicates that there was a tower on the north eastern corner of the building, which suggests that perhaps, in the early 1600s, the house looked rather more castly than it does today. Anyhow, I removed that statement.

message: The lead currently says that Bruce Castle was home to Richard Sackville, whereas the text simply says that he owned it. Is there a source that says he lived there? Rjm at sleepers (talk) 07:24, 7 October 2009 (UTC)
replies: text: I've been looking for a suitable reference. Sackville certainly owned the manor - but I can't find any ref for his residence. I took the liberty of moving the image, so it didn't 'leak' so much between sections, and noted it was in the Iveagh Bequest at Kenwood. I also made some corrections at Sackwille!

text: His main residence was Knole House. Neither Bruce Castle nor Lordship House appear in the index to his wife's diaries. Rjm at sleepers (talk) 13:55, 7 October 2009 (UTC)
replies: text: Sackville didn't live there; as the article itself (correctly) states, he owned the house but leased it to Thomas Peniston. – iridescent 18:58, 7 October 2009 (UTC)
