Leeds Castle
Leeds Castle is a historic castle in Kent, England, built on islands in a lake formed by the River Len. The present appearance derives largely from early 19th-century remodelling over medieval structures and it has been a royal residence and private estate before opening to the public in the 20th century.

As it stood in 1823
The shape it held in its prime.
Built on islands within a broad lake, the castle presents a low, rectangular multi-storey main block with crenellated parapets and several round corner towers rising above continuous curtain walls. The masonry is pale Kent stone with numerous tall mullioned and transomed windows in regular rows. The roofline is dominated by battlements rather than pitched roofs; the structure sits directly at the waterline with stone base-walls meeting the lake and a flagged approach across the islands.
