Forse Castle (3)
There was a lot more of the keep a few years ago.  In 1900 it was still almost complete to the wall-head.  The tumbled stone in the foreground is the remains of the south wall and as you can see from the growing crack in it, half the remaining north wall is getting ready to depart too!

As I mentioned before, the gatehouse was to the east (right) of the keep, and the door was secured by sliding timber bars, the sockets for which pass right through the wall on the right of the photo, into the keep.
