    Henry VIII may have built many things, but castles in the true sense of the word were not high on his list, if they were on it at all! What we now call his 'castles' (Deal, Walmer, Sandown etc) are not really castles at all, they are gun platforms, pure and simple and serve no other purpose at all other then to mount a large battery of cannon.Deal is a wonderful example, not of a castle, but of an Henrican gun fort
