Building of Raglan Castle was started by a man named William ap Thomas, and completed by his son, William Herbert. Herbert became the 1st Earl of Pembroke, and once had custody of the child Henry, Earl of Richmond, who later became King Henry VII. I have not seen any record indicating that either of these men actually lived at Raglan Castle. There are links below to more information.
King Edward I lived in Beaumaris Castle
No, it did not need a moat. The wide river Pembroke runs close beneath the castle on the north-east, north, west and south-west sides; originally an artificial dry ditch protected the south-east approach, leaving just a short southern portion of the outer wall without any form of ditch or moat. This short section lay within the protective walls of Pembroke town, which any attacker would first have to breach; it was also protected by a very strong gate tower and four further circular towers. See link below for a large detailed plan of Pembroke Castle:

Pembroke is a town in the south of the county of Pembrokeshire. Pembroke has a well preserved castle and is the birth place of Henry Tudor. Pembroke is essentially a market town and has a vibrant community and an excellent school-Golden Grove School/Ysgol Gelli Aur. Hope this helps
Yes it is. The birth place of Henry Tudor is a dominant feature of the town of Pembroke. Well worth a visit as a part of a trip to the most spectacular county of Pembrokeshire.
