Can anyone explain why Leeds Castle is nowhere near
Leeds?
I've done my best. You'd think Americans would be used to more than one place having the same name, but somehow they still get mixed up.

On that note:
"The castle and grounds lie to the East of the village of Leeds, which should not be confused with the city of Leeds, hundreds of miles to the north"
"Hundreds of miles" should be replaced with the exact distance if somebody could find out.

why? if you put the exact distance in, it might suggest it has some sort of significance? the two are not related, and "hundreds of miles" serves that purpose better than a precise distance. —Preceding

Sections of this article read as a commercial advertisement or commercial web site, not an encyclopedia entry, such as the listing of ticket prices, hours and other transient trivia.

A very good point. The ticket prices and list of events in 2009 has been removed. If anyone wants that kind of information they can go to the official Leeds Castle website. This is an encyclopedia, not a brochure.

I've removed the following material from the article for the time being until it can be shown to be important rather than a collection of trivia.

The castle was used as the location for Chalfont, the family home of the d'Ascoynes, in the film Kind Hearts and Coronets (1949).[1]
