Thanks, Michelle 🙂 The ground floor is a shop and cafe, I think the other floors are accommodation, flats maybe. If you click on the photo you’ll get a much bigger view and be able to see what’s at the entrance to the shop.
Jaw-dropping, Cathy! Imagine living there in its hay-day. Its amazing now, even in its decay and entwined with the advances of modern life. Lovely pics.

Love the wooden statue is it anyone important?

No-one important, he’s known as ’The Guard’ – a sculpture of a sentry guard at the entrance of the castle.

Wonderful. I wonder what the crest on his shield means. I’d like to visit that coffee shop by the tower with you. We could have a nice chat. Hugs.

Oh, and I think the symbol on the shield might be the Welsh Dragon from the flag of Wales.
