Kilcrea castle |
Ground floor entrance to the Castle |
Murder hole in the lobby of the ground floor |
Vaulted roof of the 2nd and 3rd floor |
The door to the great hall of the castle at the top floor |
One of the lovely windows of the great hall |
The garderobe or toilet of the castle, wooden seats would have been over these holes |
The wall walk of the castle, notice the spade like shape of the wall walk slabs, these were shaped with an inbuilt funnel to allow rain water run off the wall walk |
Currently Im working on an illustration of a late medieval tower house castle, I took the chance to pop over to my favourite castle again, Kilcrea and took a more thorough wonder around, examining it in detail for illustration.
