Again the old General Hospital… / / It was built in 1897 and was home to Newfoundlands first operating room. The hospital has been closed and condemed for many many years now. Rumor has it that many dark and hideous things were done behind its doors, things that are better left forgotten… Only memories are left now that can haunt its dark and terrifying hallways. / / Cinderellas wicked step sisters would be in their glory having her scrub these floors. /

Shot at Warwick castle in Warwickshire England. / Nikon D70s / lens 18-70mm / focal length 18mm / aperture mode / aperture f16 / shutterspeed 1/125 / ISO 200 / If you are gonna visit a castle in England, well this has to be in the top 5 best to go and see, well worth visiting. / Warwick Castle was built on the orders of William the Conqueror in 1068 as part of a defensive chain of castles established to maintain power in his new territories. It is possible that some kind of defensive structure existed on the site in the early tenth century or before belonging to Ethelfleda, the daughter of Alfred the Great, The castle has been remodelled and strengthened over the years to the point we see it today. The first castle consisted of a huge mound of earth topped with a wooden fort. To the north of the mound was the bailey surrounded by a ditch and wooden palisade. The castle was positioned by the side of the River Avon which gave protection to the castle on that side. The wooden structure on top of the mound was replaced by a stone shell keep some of which can still be seen. The wooden palisade around the bailey has also been replaced by stone walls and towers. During the Baron’s War Simon de Montfort’s forces attacked and damaged the defenses. The Beauchamp family took possession of the castle shortly after and owned the castle for almost 200 years. In the late fourteenth century the several major changes were made to the castle including the great hall and domestic ranges, a water gate and improvements to the main gatehouse and the barbican infront of it. Over the centuries the castle became an important seat of power and was the home for the Earls of Warwick who played an important role in shaping the history of England. Richard Neville, Earl of Warwick was known as the ‘Kingmaker’ for his involvement in bringing Edward IV to the throne. The castle is now owned by the Tussaud Group and is possibly the best castle to visit in Britain due to the wide range of events and attractions that can be seen.

The medieval castle in the Belgian town of Vorselaar. Usually called “Vorselaar castle” but also locally known as “de Borrekens”. Apparenly the castle was originally not more than a fortified tower, but it grew into a large water castle throughout the middle ages. The castle is located some distance away from the village of Vorselaar and the location does not seem very strategic at first glance, but in the middle ages there was an important road between Turnhout and Antwerp (part of the trade route to Cologne in Germany) The medieval fortress was changed into a luxurious palace in the middle of the 18th century. The defensive walls and the gate tower were demolished and a large, baroque bailey was constructed. But the general look of the medieval structure was maintained. Subsequent alterations during the 19th century damaged the look of the building somwhat (especially the mock-neo-tudor entrance), but even the horrors of neo-gothic could not destroy the powerfull and ancient appearance of this old castle. Mainly because the four corner towers were never demolished.

a classic view of the old castle in beersel, belgium. a round fortress with three towers and a living quarter built up against the inside of one of the walls (unfortunately that part of the structure is left in ruins). it was built in the late middle ages to defend the city of brussles from attack from the south. It’s regarded as one of the nicest examples of late medieval castle architecture one can find in belgium.

This one’s from a trip around Western Europe in 2005, where we went for a day trip to this rather unique place. Well, it would be unique if it weren’t for it’s Cornish counterpart, but we didn’t see it, so it doesn’t count. :p

Blarney History. / Blarney Castle, as viewed by the visitor today, is the third to have been erected on this site. The first building in the tenth century was a wooden structure. Around 1210 A.D. this was replaced by a stone structure which had the entrance some twenty feet above the ground on the north face. This building was demolished for foundations. In 1446 the third castle was built by Dermot McCarthy, King of Munster of which the keep still remains standing. Cormac McCarthy, King of Munster / The lower walls are fifteen feet, built with an angle tower by the McCarthys of Muskerry. It was subsequently occupied at one time by Cormac McCarthy, King of Munster, who is said to have supplied four thousand men from Munster to supplement the forces of Robert the Bruce at the battle of Bannockburn in 1314. Legend has it that the latter king gave half of the Stone of Scone to McCarthy in gratitude. This, now known as the Blarney Stone, was incorporated in the battlements where it can now be kissed.
