Leeds Castle is without doubt one of the most stunning castles in England. A castle has been on the site since 1119. In the 13th century it became a favourite residence of King Edward I. During the 16th century, Henry VIII used it as a residence for his first wife, Catherine of Aragon. It has been open to the public since 1976.
The castle is reputedly haunted by a black dog, said to be an omen of bad luck or the death of one of the occupants of Leeds Castle.
