This is a picture of the picturesque ruins of Urquhart Castle in Scotland. They are situated 2 miles from Drumnadrochit on a rocky peninsula on the banks of Loch Ness.
You cross over a wooden gangway which now lies in place of the original drawbridge across the defensive ditch. First you pass through the main gate-house - look for door on the left leading to a small exhibit about Historic Scotland - go up a couple of steps and you can peer into the tiny prison cell which was guarded by the gate-keeper. In the other (south) lodge of the gate-house, you can see the remains of an old kiln where grain was dried.
It is a wonderful place to be if you want to get a chance to see « Nessie » (The Loch Ness Monster). Have a picnic and watch carefully...
