Taken from the track on the western approach to the castle which passes through the marshy ground which protects the castle for much of its inland facing aspect. I cannot help thinking that the long narrow pool is so regular in shape that it must have been excavated on purpose. It may have been a quarry and then become available for defence.

I cannot help thinking that the long narrow pool is so regular in shape that it must have been excavated on purpose. It may have been a quarry and then become available for defence.
