A fact from Beverston Castle appeared on Wikipedia's Main Page in the Did you know column on 22 August 2006. The text of the entry was as follows:

Did you know... that Beverston Castle is in ruin, not mainly from its role in warfare, but by a 1646 act of the English parliament to destroy its battlements, lest they be used by Royalists?

A record of the entry may be seen at Wikipedia:Recent additions/2006/August.

Help improve our long-awaited Wikiproject!

Hello Wikipedians, This looks like it hasn't been updated in a while. Has there been any new or additional information on the construction and art decoration of the castle since 2008? Has the family who now owns the castle allowed any kind of excavation or study since their purchased it? --DonatelliaAustin (talk) 15:39, 18 September 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Coordinate error

{{geodata-check}}

The following coordinate fixes are needed for

Beverston Castle. The link on the page (: 51.6437°N 2.2023°W) gives a location that is 100m+/- incorrect.

Source: https://assets.savills.com/properties/GBLHRALAR190001/LAR190001_LAR19000036.PDF See the map on 'page 23' of the 'for sale' document, which is actually 'page 25' of the PDF.

The location should be (but I couldn't figure out how to edit & convert. Lat: 51°38'38.72"N Long: 2°12'5.78"W

Additional data? 51°38′38.84″N 2°12′5.37″W / 51.6441222°N 2.2014917°W / 51.6441222; -2.2014917 EDIT: FIXED. Works well. pn 2019-09-29
