Inside The Castle - I was outside one room when I heard someone doing a tuneful dum-dee-dum-dee-dah then a forceful grunt, I just had to see what was going on - it was a recording that this poor sole may have made whilst sitting on the privvy. When I mentioned how amusing it was to one of the attendants, she told me that it was the thing that visiting children remembered most. Image Date: 04/07/2011

Inside The Castle - This is the Castle clock, stands about 5 feet (1.5 metres) high, 3 feet wide (1 metre) and 2 feet (0.6 metres) deep, the cables are attached to weights on the other side of the room. Image Date: 04/07/2011
The Castle Clock Tower - This is the clock from the outside, notice that it only uses one hand, I checked the time against my watch and it said 12:50, not bad time keeping for a clock that was built in 1597. Image Date: 04/07/2011
