For john mew and his wife josephine their home really is their castle. They have built their own English castie in the Sussex countyside. The building is brand new with all the luxuries you would expect from a house that cost more than £350 000 to build. however when you first see it from the outside it would be easy to think that you are looking at an ancient monument. the building has a lot of the features of a traditional castle including a keep a moat and a drawbridge."my choice of house is somewhat eccentric and building it was very hard work, but we've got the perfect plact to live," mew says. although some would say that the buliding is impractical and may be cold in harsh britsh winteas, he certainly has gon a unique and spacious home
