    The shape of a castle generally depends on the terrain its built on. If great big king dude starts from scratch on flattish ground then they did tend to be generally symmetrical. Otherwise they tended to follow the natural river, cliff, or other natural defense. Also, there are many types of castle. I am lucky enough to live within a good drive of many traditional medieval type ones. I would say about 50:50 to those that made an attempt to be symmetrical.

    Wales has some of the best castles around so check this long list out and see if you can get some inspiration from them.

    Edit -- top tip. If the list hasn't got at least 10 photos, its probably no more than a pile of rocks...
