How long does a peerage last?

There are two types of peers: life peers and hereditary peers. LIfe peerages are awarded for life only and the titles are not passed onto heirs. They are awarded by the Queen on the advice of the Prime Minister. Many life peers are political appointments to ensure political presence of the main political parties in the House of Lords. The Archbishops of Canterbury and York usually get life peerages on retirement, as do former Speakers of the House of Commons, Prime Ministers, Home, Defence and Foreign Secretaries and Chancellors. The 1999 House of Lords Act cut the number of hereditary peers entitled to a seat in the House of Lords from over 700 to 92 and ended the right to pass membership of the Lords down through the family.

Why does a castle need a lot of space?

Historically, its first requirement was for an easily defensible position; so they were frequently placed on hilltops and high ground. As they were inevitably built by kings, earls, barons etcetera they needed to be able to contain their (sizeable) staff and stabling requirements - and, of course, the bigger the castle tended to indicate the more influential the owner! (Only in mobile phones do men boast about who has the SMALLEST!)
