Pembroke Castle

If you look carefully you can see a man abseiling down the tower

View taken from the river

Different angle

Main gatehouse with barbican and 3 sets of portcullises to get through

Looking across the bailey from the gatehouse

Round tower in the middle is the one William built

Me getting in the action

model of how the castle would have looked in 1199

looking along the walls

in the other direction

view of the bailey from the top of the gatehouse

wall walks

fireplace

looking down the stairs from the top of a tower to the wall

great view to the river

you can see for miles

in any direction

more walls

double gatehouse

entrance to great hall

remains of great hall

there's that bloke getting in my photos again

this is inside the tower that William built ...it had five floors and the only stone vaulted roof on a tower in England

Another view

Henry VII was also born here ... in this very room

view from river level

you can see how big this place is

love this shot

final look

Good stuff - the Brochs are fascinating things - they look like they should not stand at all. It was communal living certainly.
The history in Scotland is simply awesome - you are very lucky

Very nice - looks like a great castle. The timber structures on top of the stonework you do not see a lot. Robert the Bruce connection is good - a small world

Warm lighting in the church. A brave guy - with a horse leg? Did anyone ask the horse.
