I'm American, but my mom is a Geordie. We always visited my aunt when we went to England and i thought her living right next to a castle was the coolest thing ever.

It's been about 20 years since i visited, and my mom sent me the photo since she is visiting. All i can really remember is that her house is over 400 years old and the back garden runs right up to the castle wall. There is a walled off courtyard between the house and the street, so that might be the battlements.

Ah, so they might be actual battlements. Very nice.
