Carsluith Pic

Carsluith Castle is a three story, L-plan tower house in Galloway, Scotland. The main tower was built sometime after 1460. It is three stories high with corbelled walkways on two ends. A round turret was once located at each corner.

The stair tower was added around 1560. It contains a circular staircase linking the three stories and is topped with a cap-house. The ground floor is divided into two store rooms with vaulted stone ceilings. The great hall is on the first floor. Other floors contained living quarters and storage.

My reconstruction of Carsluith Castle is 15 inches long, 15 inches wide (48 x 48 studs) and is about 20 inches high.
