    <dcterms:description><![CDATA[Staircase/garderobe block of the tower house (on left). The additional building complex (with Parlor and Great Hall) would have stood in the center of this photo. It was attached to the east side of the castle. Remains of the south wall of the Great Hall can still be seen (on right). That wall would have reinforced and/or doubled as the south-facing bawn wall.]]></dcterms:description>

    <dcterms:description><![CDATA[This shows the tower house from the vantage point of the marsh or seasonal lake to the south. The doorway at the bottom is formed from a pre-existing window loop (i.e., opening) and now leads into the cellar. This indicates use of the cellar as a cattle byre in modern times.]]></dcterms:description>

    <dcterms:description><![CDATA[Close-up of the castle, including “Raleigh&#039;s window,” from the south. Note (to the right) the arrow slit in the staircase/garderobe tower on the same level as the window. Defense was paramount in the original castle design. The loop also serves as one of two windows for the privy.]]></dcterms:description>

    <dcterms:description><![CDATA[Additional stories are missing from the top of the tower. An attacker would have been targeted by the arrow slits and windows, which also give fine views of the landscape. The ivy is no longer on the tower (as of 2009-10).]]></dcterms:description>

    <dcterms:description><![CDATA[The door and the window immediately above the door, as well as the rectangular opening on the same level as the door (in the staircase/garderobe block), are all modern insertions. The arrow loop on the second level of the tower block is an original feature that provided defense. It also provides light to the staircase.]]></dcterms:description>
