Very beautiful picture of the old castle. I like the old castle and all sorts of ruins, because they are always beautiful, and so you always wonder how they could build such large buildings at the time, with the tools it had. And then there is always a story around each building.

@Kent: The Normans were fantastic builders and stonemasons !! Although it did all take time.

Its amazing to think how long it has stood there, and how many people have seen this view. Good shot Anthony, I must visit that castle one day.
