Henry VIII's Castle That's Owned By A Department Store - Brownsea Castle

Henry VIII is know for being one of history's most notorious kings. In England he's known for having 6 wives, with two meeting the end being executed by beheading. However if Henry couldn't get his own way, then things would not be easy for those around him.

He began the English Reformation by asking the Pope for a divorce, however this wasn't granted. Because of this he broke from Rome creating his own church, but also ruining relationships between other countries at the same time. Spain, the Holy Roman Empire and other countries now threatened to invade Tudor England.

To help defend his country, he decided to build a series of artillery forts along the south coast. Brownsea Castle that sits on Brownsea Island is one of these, but today it's not open to the public. It sits on an uninhabited island, but today is owned remarkably by the Department Store chain John Lewis.
