On one holiday SWMBO and I went up to the little bit by the flag. Scary or WHAT :eek: The 'banister' on the climb was a thick rope on the floor! But boy what a view!

It was the chateau used in the film The Vikings, Kirk Douglas. If you search on the film and open the 'Images for the Vikings there are a couple of photos of KD at the top! I don't think that I'm allowed to post them here, copyright? It's the place where they chucked their axes at the underside of the draw bridge and used them to climb up and get inside. Punchy lot weren't they!

It's a beautiful part of the country Kenny.

Oh, off topic for a mo, but I see that the wonderful French hunters have had another successful hunt? Another woman shot! Boozy breakfasts again peut-être?

Hi John. The rope banister is still there. We love Brittany and try to visit in our little VW camper.

Dunster Castle, Somerset
A former motte and bailey castle, now a country house, in the village of Dunster, Somerset, England. The castle lies on the top of a steep hill called the Tor, and has been fortified since the late Anglo-Saxon period. After the Norman conquest of England in the 11th century, William de Mohun constructed a timber castle on the site as part of the pacification of Somerset. A stone shell keep was built on the motte by the start of the 12th century, and the castle survived a siege during the early years of the Anarchy. At the end of the 14th century the de Mohuns sold the castle to the Luttrell family, who continued to occupy the property until the late 20th century.
