Dirleton Castle


the dovecote, in the gardens


the outer walls of the northern range

The castle actually fills up most of the stone outcropping on which it is built, but only now that the latest additions have been made. THe original donjon/keep would have been only a small part of the area, surrounded by a large courtyard and wall.
