		Ardencaple Castle ^Votes:0 Ardencaple Castle From 1525 Ardencaple Castle was the stronghold of the MacAulay Clan until the death of the last chief in 1786 when the estate and Castle passed out of MacAulay ownership. It was refurbished by its last owner Henrietta MacAulay Stromberg who died in 1931. The liferent of the Castle went to Adelaide Parker Voorheis until 1935. The Castle was then sold to a consortium of developers who developed the Tower Lawn into a housing estate in 1936-37. This was interrupted by war when the Navy requisitioned the Castle. The Navy finally demolished the Castle in 1957, leaving standing one battle Tower. This Tower was used as a navigational mark for submarines returning to Faslane until the early 1990's. When the nature and size of submarines changed at that time, replacement navigation Read More Go to Site

		Castles of the United States ^Votes:0 7 states down, 43 to go. Most of you know by now that I have an interest in the government's power of eminent domain. Since the Supreme Court ruled last year that local governments could take anyone's property and give it to a developer for just about any reason, I have been spending some of my time trying to have our property rights restored to us. There is quite a bit of good news. Several states have passed propositions on their ballots that will ammend their state constitutions in a way that will restore the right to own property for the citizens in those states. For more information, click here Should the government be able to take any private property using the power of eminent domain? Yes, anyones property for any reason. No, not for any reason. Yes, but only to build roads, schools Read More Go to Site

		History ^Votes:0 . . . . . . \| Home \| History \| Virtual visit \| Visits \| Receptions \| How to reach us \| Contacts \| With its power constantly rising, Venice began in the 15th century to value the surrounding territories in order to ensure its food supply, thus enriching the territory of Vicenza; during the course of the century, different types of mansions - from the fort to the farm-villa - appear on the recently conquered mainland, as a logical consequence of the different reasons for the aristocrats to reside in the countryside. The castle-villa Porto-Colleoni-Thiene is a fruit of this development, being in one part countryside residence, in the other agricultural estate, built in the centre of Thiene, a small town close to Vicenza. From the town one can see the towers with its battlement and chimneys wi Read More Go to Site

		Ljubljana Castle ^Votes:0 front \| fun \| sightseeing \| practical \| CASI Ljubljana Castle The Ljubljana Castle was built on a prehistoric site, on top of a hill. It was never explicity mentioned until medieval age. The castle was evidently administered by caretakers, but there isn't any proof that Ljubljana knights had their seat in the castle before 1144. In this year only Odalreich of Ljubljana is mentioned. In the Middle Ages the castle was used as a fortress and later it served various purposes, but the present quintagonal irregular layout of the castle is of later origin. Inside the castle there is the Chapel of St. George , mentioned in 1489, redone later in Baroque style, and decorated in 1747 with the colorful coat-of-arms of Carniolian provincial governators. The tower of the chapel was renewed in 1990 and i Read More Go to Site

		O'Dea Web Site - Castle ^Votes:0 The Battle of Dysert O'Dea The O'Deas trace their ancestry to Milesius, whose descendants lead the Gaelic race to Ireland, and his wife, Scota, after which Scotland is named. For many centuries the O'Deas fought side-by-side with the O'Briens, O'Quinns, O'Connors, O'Hehir, MacNamaras and others and were loyal to the King of Thomond. In 1318 A.D. Richard de Clare with a formidable army, decided to attack Conor O'Dea, chief of the Cineal Fearmaic, at Dysert and so cut off the strong arm of the combined Gaelic opposition. With a small band of followers, Conor maintained a stand at the ford on the Fergus (where Macken Bridge now stands) and held back the Anglo-Norman advance while his men took up an ambush position behind him. De Clare, seeing only a small body of Conor O'Deas's men at the for Read More Go to Site
