Exterior view of the east side of the castle, which includes the four storey south east tower, the entrance via gatehouse and the remains of the north east tower. The entrance is a pointed arch set within a larger arch and a passageway leading inside. The entrance is set to the right of the south east tower which has damage to the very top. Behind the damaged north east tower some of the interior walls can be seen, possibly those which surround the rectangular courtyard, and the north west tower cen be seen in the background. The castle is late 14th century, built by John Lewyn for Richard le Scrope.
