Any idea where in England these are, and whether the ruins are of a true castle or a folly. Many thanks. |

I suppose it depends what you mean by true castle. I have no record of a medieval fortification of that name but the does appear to be a ruined stately home a Wothorpe which looks 16C or later to me.
