[Talk-GB] A few too many icons at The Tower of London

Hi

In the latest OSM-Carto upgrade an icon was added for historic=castle.

Which highlights a bit of a problem with the tagging of The Tower of 
London (1)

The walls are split individually as the turrets have names.

Most of those tags are duplicated with an building=castle.

  I think there should be one historic=castle on the perimeter object 
(2) & have building=castle on any internal structures

This follows the same tagging model as schools etc.

Any better suggestions?
